[Aurora-sparc-devel] Kernel for 2.98 doesn't build from source rpm

[Dean Anderson]

BTW, in sparc32bash, it complains that unifdef is needed (which isn't 
part of aurora, so it seems (I haven't looked very hard yet) sigh.

We really need to keep better track of the source code that is used to
actually build the distribution.  One can't just plop in binary packages
without the matching source.

If you are sending flags to rpmbuild, those need to be documented. The 
scripts that you use to produce the release need to be available. 

Otherwise, things can't be built, and we are left guessing as to what
you did to produce the binaries that you distributed. Guesses don't cut
it.

Thanks!
