bug report: building rpm hugs98-Nov2002

Hi,
While trying to (re)build
	hugs98-Nov2002-2.src.rpm  
		(from http://cvs.haskell.org/Hugs/pages/downloading.htm)
I ran in to these two problems:

rpm --rebuild  hugs98-Nov2002-2.src.rpm   doesn't work. In the hugs98.spec 
file line 50 the need for "/man/man1/hugs.1.gz" is defined,  which should be 
the bz2 file  "/man/man1/hugs.1.bz2".

Afther changing the above, I tried to build the rpm package in the RPM/BUILD 
dir. But "make rpm" results in an error, starting with the message 
	cat: CVS/Root: No such file or directory
Creating the file (with a path in it) seems not enough. And  due to lack of 
"cvs" skills I ended my quest.

Regards,

M. Kappenburg
