<br>
I agree with you - unfortunately I have been unable to find a procedure
written for the "normal user" how to make an rpm sandbox in the HOME
directory. There was a neat article in Linux User at the end of last
year with an example based on openSUSE, but I could not get the same
procedure to work on Fedora 12.<br>
<br>
By default on Fedora 12 rpmbuild is hard-wired to /root/rpmbuild/...<br>
<br>
All tips welcome, Simon<br>

I have understood correctly, building rpm files as and in root is a bad
idea. You can, and should, have the complete rpmbuild directory tree as
a normal user in your HOME directory and create the RPM from there, as
a normal user.
