Of course they don't have links to the source as far as I can tell, the build fails and errors like the following show that they are far far away from providing something remotely usefull since the build tools can not even detect what os and arch they are building the rpms for. .... os.detect: [echo] Detected platform: slc3 [echo] Binary compatible platform: slc3_ia32_gcc323 .... [exec] LD_LIBRARY_PATH='/home/glbuild/CC_WORK/checkouts/repository/externals/globus/4.0.1-VDT-1.3.11/slc3_ia32_gcc 23/lib' ....

After that building voms/dpm should be fairly easy. Cheers, Kostas
