Another thing I forgot to mention is that I go the source from the google
gears svn trunk (the only place the source is available) and I'm a little
unsure what to put into SOURCES of the rpmbuild, as the svn checkout
contains the osx, windows, symbian, windows ce and linux code.. not to
mention multiple browsers... Surely there must be a way for me to seperate
just the linux source I used to build... any ideas?

On another note... there is an interesting project called gears on rails,
which is a mix of gears with ruby on rails allowing for a very fast and
organised approach to building offline apps.... this could be the way to
go...
