Hi Everybody,

I've been trying to build (from the source RPM on the Xen site) an x86_64 RPM on Centos 5, as there's not one available from the Xen site. I've been using 3.1.0 from the tar ball, but I'd prefer to have a RPM of it for a variety of reasons.

Upon using rpmbuild to try and build the binary, it tells me the architecture (x86_64) isn't included. I changed the spec file to see if it'd build anyway; it doesn't. I'm having a few problems figuring out why. I haven't seen any obvious errors, and the last few lines of output are:

install -m0644 -p include/public/COPYING /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/xen-testing-aee991c7723a.e16de9635bec/dist/install/usr/include/xen make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/xen-testing-aee991c7723a.e16de9635bec/xen' make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/xen-testing-aee991c7723a.e16de9635bec/xen'
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.88287 (%build)


RPM build errors:
   Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.88287 (%build)

I can't see any errors above these lines either.

So, does anyone have any ideas as to what might be causing it to fail? Has anyone had success in building a x86_64 rpm, either on CentOS/RHEL5 or another distro?

Thanks in advance for any advice,

Martin
