Hello.

xymon/build/Makefile.rules contains
find $(INSTALLROOT)$(INSTALLWWWDIR) -type f -print0 | xargs -0 chmod
644

what about to change it ? For example to
find $(INSTALLROOT)$(INSTALLWWWDIR) -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;

Some time $(INSTALLWWWDIR) may be empty. Building brake at this case:
I don't quite understand how this can be. The $(INSTALLWWWDIR)
directory should always have some files in it - e.g. the gifs and help
files that get installed prior to the line that breaks.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/builder/RPM/BUILD/xymon-4.3.13/web'
find /home/builder/tmp-build/xymon-buildroot/var/www/xymon -type f
-print0 | xargs -0 chmod 644
chmod: missing operand after `644'
Try `chmod --help' for more information.
Here it seems like you are building an RPM package. Are you sure this
isn't caused by some error in the spec-file ?

I remember seeing this while doing PKGBUILD=1 builds in my RPM too,
starting right in the 4.3.13 release. I patched around it (below) and
promptly forgot about it... but never tracked down precisely what had
changed in the build path. It could be affecting yours too.
