[solved] mkinstallp package creation failing "no such file: ./usr/lpp/<package name>/inst_root"
Hello, I'm trying to build a (bff) package from an already installed program (clam antivirus) using mkinstallp. However, mkinstallp fails with "no such file: ./usr/lpp/<package name>/inst_root"
I'm not sure why all files get created ok except for these particular ones. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Here's my template file:
Code:

You'll see from the above output that it's failing on the same files that the mkinstallp failed on. Anyone know how what I'm doing wrong and how to fix it? Thanks.

john1212, thanks for your suggestion but limits are not the issue.
This issue has been resolved, or worked around anyway. After testing I found that the failures are happening on empty directories. To work around this I removed them from the files list and created the directories in the post script. I'm not sure why mkinstallp doesn't like empty directories but it doesn't.

Hello,
Is it possible to specify a list of files to be included in an RPM package (section "% files") according to some condtions. For example, if a particular condition is true, do not include the file "X". If not include it.
Thank you for your help.
