It doesnt appear to make it with my rpm spec. Heres an extract:
%install
mkdir /opt/OpenPBS
mkdir /opt/OpenPBS/2.3.16
ln -s /opt/OpenPBS/2.3.16 /opt/OpenPBS/latest
cd $RPM_BUILD_DIR/OpenPBS_2_3_16
make install
cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/OpenPBS_2_3_16/doc
make install
The ln -s command does not make the link. I forgot to mention that this spec
file makes about 5 RPMs. It makes a server, man, devel, xpbs, xpbsmon rpm.
Which RPM does the %install section refer to?
Thanks
James
