When I try to use rpm to rebuild a src.rpm, it gives a Segmentation fault on 2.5.20. Works on 2.5.18 and 2.4.18.

rpm -vvvvvv --rebuild ORBit2*
Segmentation fault

Some small src.rpm files work, e.g. filesystem-2.1.6-4.src.rpm, but not all.

can you strace an operation that fails, and find out where it's segfaulting. Also, check dmesg for a kernel oops, and decode with kysmoops if present.

I've one other report of a problem with capabilities, which might be related.
