I need to recompile X11R6 (I need to add the -D_REENTRANT flag).  Ok, RPM
makes this easy, right?  Just mount the cdrom, go to the directory, and
type "rpm --recompile X11R6.1-pl1-11.src.rpm".

Nope:

Installing X11R6.1-pl1-11.src.rpm
Arch mismatch!
///usr/src/redhat/SPECS/X!11R6.1.spec doesn't build on this architecture.

This architecture is i386 ... What do you _mean_ it doesn't build?

I DL's the file from the redhat ftp site...and got the exact same result.
Why is the source file for X11 sparc specific?
