Hi,

Interesting issue with the version of RPM in the 20001212 rawhide release;
building any new RPM results in something akin to the following (this is
the result of building the latest release of gal, 0.4.1):

[...snipped for brevity...]
+ cp -pr README AUTHORS COPYING ChangeLog NEWS 
+/var/tmp/gal-0.4.1-root/usr/share/doc/gal-0.4.1
+ exit 0

Obviously, "where" doesn't help much, since there's no debugging
information in the executable; has Red Hat considered building rawhide
releases with "-g" so that better debugging information can be reported
(at least in the initial few weeks of development, and then removing that
as you get closer to a release, so that optimized builds are tested)?
