rpmbuild fails on a different machine with - wrong owner/group mark:users

[mark meyer]

hello all,

environment: openSuSE 11.1 and 11.3

i put together a VERY simple rpmbuild example (for learning purposes) on one of my older development boxes (gecko2).

my example seems to be working fine on gecko2, and builds my very simple rpm ;)


however - when i moved my example, over to my newer development box (gecko3) - it fails to build,  giving me the following message.

can someone tell me what i am missing in the other development environment (gecko3) that is causing this issue ?

thank you,
mark

// end snip



both machines are set up identically for the build environemt and users. 

here is my directory structure - which is identical on both machines:

mark at gecko2 rpm> pwd;find
/home/mark/rpm
.
./RPMS
./RPMS/i386
./RPMS/i586
./RPMS/i586/maximus-2.0.0-1.i586.rpm
./BUILD
./SPECS
./SPECS/maximus-2.0.0.spec
./SRPMS
./SRPMS/maximus-2.0.0-1.src.rpm
./SOURCES
mark at gecko2 rpm> 




here is my the script:

mark at gecko2 rpm> cat ./SPECS/maximus-2.0.0.spec
