Jon, I'm with you. I'm incredibly sorry for being so dense, but I
don't get it either. Here is what I did:

I downloaded the file from the previous e-mail, I changed lines 4, and
10 (Release 53.1, and "mythplugins" respectively)
then I executed the following commands at the prompt:

[root at gwynevere mythtv]# rpmbuild -bb mythtv-suite.spec
Executing(%prep): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.69464

[root at gwynevere mythtv]#

The box is one that is built from Jarod's  guide, and I'm on step 9
"Get and install MythTV."
Is there no way to change what my box calls the apt-get "mythplugin"?
It seems like using apt-get was so much easier.

Sorry again for being so dense, 
James
