I am trying to build Ruby 1.8.7 on a RHEL 5 system following the instructions 
in that thread and I have a few questions as I am a n00b to RPM building:

When I ran the rpmbuild command, I got no RPM's.
I got a bunch of error complaining about "rpaths", and in the output was a 
suggestion to prepend an environment setting to the command -- like this:

QA_RPATHS=$[ 0x0001|0x0010 ] rpmbuild -ba ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/ruby.spec

When I ran this, the previous errors were now warnings, and I got a set of 
RPM's.

Is this The Way It Works ?

Is it possible to eliminate the errors/warnings ?

Would a link to a PatchBin of the build output help ?

Thanks in advance.
