Re: [Ltib] Cannot build e2fsprogs using ./ltib --force

[James E. Chargin Jr.]

Stuart,

Thanks for helping out.

As you requested, I have run the several commands you provided. The 
first four command completed without complaint, but the final "./ltib" 
failed, with the same symptom as before. Part of the output follows:
----
...

`/home/jimc/.../ltib-mpc8315erdb-20071129/rpm/BUILD/e2fsprogs-1.34/tests/progs'

RPM build errors:
    Bad exit status from

Build time for e2fsprogs: 45 seconds

Failed building e2fsprogs


f_buildrpms() returned an error, exiting

These packages failed to build:
e2fsprogs
Build Failed

Exiting on error or interrupt

Because this command failed, I didn't even run the "./ltib -p e2fsprogs 
-f" you requested.

Again, thanks for the help. What more can I do to help determine what 
the problem might be?

Regards,
Jim
