I originally tried it on a FC4 machine, but on a FC5 machine it did give 
the same errors:

+ make
cd . && /bin/sh 
/home/johan/DENX/build/ppc-2008-01-09/work/usr/src/denx/BUILD/libuser-0.56.2/admin/missing

RPM build errors:
    Bad exit status from 
/home/johan/DENX/build/ppc-2008-01-09/work/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.48716 (%build)

The first phases did build without any problem, but libuser did give the 
same error again. Should gtkdoc have been installed before building libuser?

Kind regards,
