compiling src.rpm

[Martín Marqués]

I'm having problems with ktorrent crashing all the time and I wanted
to try a patch I found in bugs.kde.org which may fix this problem.

The thing is that compilation of src.rpm isn't what it used to be.

Before I would install the src.rpm, go the /usr/src/redhat/SOURCE/ and
modify the source, or add a patch (adding it in the spec file) and
then just run rpmbuild -ba my.spec and I would have the new rpm. This
doesn't work anymore.

How can I compile a src.rpm now a days?

Nevermind. Found all the old structure in the ~/rpmbuild directory.

By default, the src RPM is installed in ~/rpmbuild now instead of 
/usr/src/redhat (with "~" representing the home directory of the user
that installed the source RPM).

Other than that, everything should be the same.

Gimme a pointer to the bug/patch, and I'll see about whipping up some builds 
to test.

I'm testing the patch from this bug report:

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=186621

Anyway, I reported the bug here:

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=212921

In another report it says that this was fixxed in 3.3.

Tried rawhide's ktorrent which didn't work.

Any chance on having an rpm of 3.3 soon?
