[Rust-users] makerpm.sh - too many parameters

[<mar...@sb...>]

Hi,

First, this is very cool. I don't have to learn about how to build RPMs. And I thought I was 
going to have to. Phew.

I've got a query - I'm attempting to make an RPM of our samba install. Everything appears to 
work, the RPM contains all the files I expect it to.

Early on in the script ( it's all going past too fast for me to see - I think it's happening when 
we make the SRPM ), makerpm.sh gives an error - too many parameters.

I'm familiar with this error, it's to do with the shell running out of space to hold the results of a 
file glob.

Now the request:

Either - would it be possible to fix this within makerpm.sh ( I'm not convinced it is ).
Or - would someone tell me how to (a) expand the space the shell has available to build the 
file list (b) how I might determine how much space I ought to set aside?
