RPM Build Failure for Snort 2.9.7.3-1 from source RPM

[Tomas Hajek <hajek () oakland edu>]

Has anyone tried building an rpm from the snort-openappid-2.9.7.3-1.src.rpm
on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.6?

I just tried with the following:
rpmbuild --rebuild snort-openappid-2.9.7.3-1.src.rpm

There are many warning such as:

/usr/lib/rpm/debugedit: canonicalization unexpectedly shrank by one
character

And then it ends with the following:
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.rCTl8F (%install)
    user jocornet does not exist - using root
    group jocornet does not exist - using root
    user jocornet does not exist - using root
    group jocornet does not exist - using root
    Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.rCTl8F (%install)

Any suggestions to get this to build?  I did not have any issues building
the prior release (2.9.7.2-1).

The DAQ ( daq-2.0.5-1.src.rpm ) rebuild went fine.

thanks,
