Hi,
I'm trying to create rpms of 2.1RC19 for CentOS 5.3. When I run
'rpmbuild -tb openvpn-2.1_rc19.tar.gz' I get an error in the end saying
...
cp: cannot stat `management/': No such file or directory
...
There is indeed no management/ directory in the tar file. Am I missing
some files or is this an error in the rpm spec file?
That seems to be either a .spec file error, or a missing directory in the
source tree. There are 2 solutions ... Both builds on Fedora.

Not sure which patch the upstream developers prefer most. But as long as
the management/ directory is not present in the source tree, I believe
SUGGESTION 2 is more the way to go.
