Buildrpm question

[Marc Karasek]

I am interested in the MIPS.  I have cross compiled gcc 3.4.1, glibc
2.3.2 and binutils 2.15. (Posted the patches for this to the mailing
list, still owe you a patch for kernel 2.4.18 to work with gcc 4.x.)
This is what I want to generate a rpm for.  Personally, I liked it much
better when you just specified -buildrpm and it would generate the rpm
for whatever you were compiling.    

I am curious why did you move away from this to the buildrpm.sh
scripts??
