> Hi there,
> I encountered the following problem while trying to build an rpm under cygwin environment using the 2.0-beta-1 rpm-maven-plugin.
> [WARNING] Der Befehl "rpmbuild" ist entweder falsch geschrieben oder
> [WARNING] konnte nicht gefunden werden.
> [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
> [ERROR] BUILD ERROR
> [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
> [INFO] RPM build execution returned: '1'.
> [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
> This means that the rpmbuild executable was not found. I installed the cygwin rpm packages. Directly calling "rpmbuild" from cygwin commandline works, but the rpm plugin seems to use the windows command shells, which unfortunately does not manage to resolve the file link:
> lrwxrwxrwx   1 rudi   Benutzer      15 Feb 25 17:48 rpmbuild -> ../lib/rpm/rpmb
> So i took the rpmb, put it to the cygwin/bin directory and renamed it to rpmbuild, which is dirty. But then the plugin goes on.
> But then the plugin does not resolve the directories within the mappings correctly:

>                   <filemode>764</filemode>

>                     </source>
>                   </sources>
>                 </mapping>  
> So we have two issues which block me building rpm's on windows/cygwin. Plz help.
