Description Tais P. Hansen 2008-01-27 18:29:55 UTC 
rpmbuild needs the /usr/src/rpm structure to work correctly but when reinstalling app-arch/rpm-5.0.0 with paludis the entire /usr/src/rpm tree is wiped. I'm guessing the ebuild is missing keepdir statements.

the rpm ebuild doesnt create that structure.  rpm itself rebuilds the dirs.
