CentOS - Jun 2008 - slightly OT - gphpedit on CentOS 5?

Hi all,

Advance apologies for being slightly OT.

Has anyone had successes with installing gphpedit on CentOS 5?  There 
don't seem to be any rpms avail for our distro and I'm far too new to 
roll my own.

Thanks in advance (off - list replies are welcome if that's more 
appropriate)

-Ray

You might try RPMs for Fedora Core 7 (not a perfect match, but maybe
close enough):
ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/releases/7/Everything/i386/os/Fedora/gphpedit-0.9.91-3.fc6.i386.rpm

Otherwise, try building the RPM yourself, it's not that hard.

Basically, create a file named ~/.rpmmacros with this content:

%_topdir %(eval echo "$HOME")/rpm

Then create the directories:

$ mkdir -p ~/rpm/{BUILD,RPMS/`uname -m`,SOURCES,SPECS,SRPMS}

Then:

$ rpmbuild --rebuild packagename.src.rpm

In that case, try building the package for Fedora Core 9:
ftp://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/i386/os/Packages/gphpedit-0.9.91-4.fc9.src.rpm
