HI,

I wanna install kernel-source, Here are the steps what I did:
1)rpm -ivh kernel-2.6.9-1.667.src.rpm
2)rpmbuild -bp --target=noarch /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/kernel-2.6.spec

after these steps, I can find the source at
'/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.9'

However, when I type command
rpm -q kernel-source

it always said "package kernel-source is not installed"

Can anybody tell me why? (I am using FC3)

Thanks
