could
*have* files ending in "*.orig" should any update be done via "patch".
Basically I applied patches to the tree instead of hand editing the
files. This left some files with "*.orig".
If this tree is left like this, once the steps, particularly
is done and if one attempts
it *could* fail, if the any patches that get applied from the
original source itself had to generate "*.orig" file or have clashes.
So workaround I had to use is,
after
is done, I did
cd ~/rpmbuild/BUILD # which would be so, by end of 1.3 anyway,
# so not really necessary but)
find . -name "*.orig" -exec rm -f {} \; # Removes the stale *.orig files
Then rest of the doc works as suggested. This correction would be great.
