which packages are you building? I maintain a set of RPMs for the most 
important software around on my ol' MkLinux box. I don't need all the 
fiddling with the config file you are doing! I split up -core in make, 
base, gui and back. Plus separate applications. To be honest I didn't 
update my packages since this and the past release, due of core not 
building on my older computer, but I am tackling that with the help of 
Richard and other kind people here so I plan to update the main RPMs 
once everything compiles.

To build RPMs I have a home-brew procedure which essentially mimicks 
what I would type from the keyboard, it does not use the feaures of 
make to export RPM.

Have a nice day,
