Description Sir Raorn 2004-10-04 02:01:10 MSD 
--build should be set to %{_host_alias} (i586-alt-linux) instead of
%{_target_platform}.

We are building everything on THIS machine, for which _target_platform was set
at rpm's build time, so now it's _host_alias. _target_platform depends on
--target argument to rpmbuild and can even be set to ``noarch-alt-linux''...
Comment 1 Dmitry V. Levin 2004-10-31 17:06:27 MSK 
$ rpm --showrc |fgrep _alias
-14: _build_alias       %{_host_alias}
-14: _host_alias        i586-alt-linux%{nil}
-14: _target_alias      %{_host_alias}

Maybe we should change _target_alias and use these macros instead?
