Thanks Lisa.
I've been running QMT for several years now, and you're right - it is
really good (regardless of Craig's preference ;) ). I've written a large
part of what's on that wiki, and I built the
http://qtp.qmailtoaster.com
site, in addition to writing many of the scripts there.
To be honest, I meant to post that question on the QMT list, but after
it was done I figured that some here might know the answer, so left well
enough alone.
From what I've found out, the answer appears to be FC10. FC9 still used
/usr/src/redhat for rpms builds (by default). FC10 now uses
$HOME/rpmbuild/, which is a change long overdue (imho).
Thanks again everybody. Sorry for the interruption.
