Yes!  The output sticks that sort of in the middle of a bunch of
other text, and doesn't make it stand out in any way.

Now, how do I fix it?  :)  Here's what;s at the bottom of the rpm -tb
output.

...
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/bug-buddy-0.4'
+ exit 0
Processing files: bug-buddy
File not found: /var/tmp/bug-buddy-root/usr/share/locale/*/*/*
Executing: %doc
...

I can find a reference to this at the end of the spec file, which
looks like this

...
%doc ABOUT-NLS AUTHORS ChangeLog COPYING INSTALL NEWS README TODO

I'm just not sure what the heck to do with it.  I don't understand
what it's trying to do there, but I noticed that I don't have a
/tmp/var/bog-buddy-0.4/usr/share/locale (I think I've got that
right), not to mention all those wildcard/asterisks there.  Thanks
again,
	Greg
