&gt;<i> I've installed cauldron in a vmware vm, and wanting to rebuild a rpm as a user in my /home I've setup the build environment as usual (I've done that a lot of times in the past and even a few weeks ago). For me everything is OK but a src.rpm install gives this output :
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> [<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">jerome at localhost</A> T&#233;l&#233;chargements]$ LC_ALL=C rpm -i getmail-4.35.0-1.mga3.src.rpm
</I>&gt;<i> error: failed to create directory %{_topdir}: / /home/jerome/rpm: Permission denied
</I>&gt;<i> error: getmail-4.35.0-1.mga3.src.rpm cannot be installed
</I>
That message implies that it's trying to create a directory called &quot;/
/home/jerome/rpm&quot; i.e. with a space, for which a Permission denied error
would be expected. It looks to me like there's a configuration
problem somewhere.
