Thanks Martin.

I think I spotted the error but I have switched to using popt-1.14 and
that has fixed the problem. I probably introduced an error in the spec
file while tinkering.

With the one line patch and this added to the spec file:

%prep
%setup -q
%patch0 -p1 -b .mint
CFLAGS="$RPM_OPT_FLAGS" ./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-shared

the rpm gets as far as:

+ ./configure m68kmint-atari-freemint --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/usr --bindir=/usr/bin --sbindir=/usr/sbin --sysconfdir=/usr/etc --datadir=/usr/share --includedir=/usr/include --libdir=/lib --libexecdir=/usr/libexec --localstatedir=/usr/var --sharedstatedir=/usr/com --mandir=/usr/man --infodir=/usr/info
configure: WARNING: you should use --build, --host, --target
checking build system type... Invalid configuration `m68kmint-atari-freemint': machine `m68kmint-atari' not recognized
configure: error: /bin/sh ./config.sub m68kmint-atari-freemint failed
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.98854 (%build)

Why does the rpm build object to the atari ?
