On CentOS5 I was used to create a simple spec file where at the end I'll declare files and directories I wan't to package: --< Snip >-- %files %dir /opt/myapp %dir /opt/myapp/bin %dir /opt/myapp/etc /opt/myapp/bin/exec01 /opt/myapp/etc/myapp.conf ---- I'll copy the file in /usr/src/redhat/SPECS and run "rpmbuild -bb myapp.spec". On CentOS6 rpm-build package no longer

i'm a newbie at building rpms. I made a few rpms years ago, but can't now make one on Centos 5. In /usr/local/rpmbuild, there are 5 subdirs: BUILD RPMS SOURCES SPECS SRPMS tmp When I type: rpmbuild -ba /usr/local/rpmbuild/SPECS/centos-release-cr-ihc.spec I get 'file not found' errors, for paths in /usr/local/rpmbuild/tmp: error: File not found:

Hi, When I build a mpt3sas rpm package, I found something interesting: 1. package name is prefixed with kmod- automatically 2. so many requirements are added automatically, most of them are kabi So my question is rpmbuild how to know he is building kernel module package? Based on which condition? Here is mpt3sas.spec: Name: mpt3sas Version: 26.00.00.00 Release: 1 Summary: RHEL

Hey all, I'm attempting to build a spec file of php 5.6.7 - the latest stable - into an rpm. And it's failing with this set of errors: Processing files: php-5.6.7-1.el7.x86_64 warning: File listed twice: /etc/rc.d/init.d/php-fpm error: Symlink points to BuildRoot: /usr/bin/phar -> /home/bluethundr/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/php-5.6.7-1.el7.x86_64/usr/bin/phar.phar warning: File listed twice:

Hi People, I have just started building my own RPMS on both Fedora and CentOS and generally things have gone well. Currently I am trying to create RPMS for some commercial software that we have purchased. Step 1 was install the software using its JAVA Based installer ensuring that all files were installed into a particular directory in /usr/local. Step 2 was create a tar file of the

You're missing the spec file header that includes lots of meta information. The dash is to separate the version from the package release string. You should have a Release: header to fill that in. > install -m 744 -d

Hi, For software development, projects are built through makefile. After building, I can run binary program. rpm is more convenient. Is there some tool that can build rpm? Thanks! Regards Andrew

Hi. Which CentOS version you using? If it is CentOS 6 then instead of building it from source, you can use IUS repo which has latest php packages. Below is the link for the packages in IUS repo for CentOS 6. <http://dl.iuscommunity.org/pub/ius/stable/Redhat/6/x86_64/repoview/> --Regards Ashishkumar S.

I am attempting to build from a src.rpm (knowing very little about rpm at all) and the spec file notes that the architecture should be set on the command line: > # platform defines - set one below or define the build_xxx on the command line Now. My question is this, how does one do this using rpmbuild? The syntax rpmbuild --target centos4 package.src.rpm seemingly has no effect.

I am trying to build an RPM for Apache-2.4.7-1 on Centos-6.5-i86_64. I am using mock. The are three build dependencies that I am trying to resolve. One, mod_socache_dc / distcache, I have simply removed from the spec file. The other two are arp and apr-utils. Since httpd-2.4.7 needs arp >= 1.4 I got the two latter requirements from http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/httpd-2.4.7-deps.tar.bz2

Hi, I think my problem is related to the way i make my RPMs (i'm newbie at this). Two things: 1) the generated RPMs are only 1,5 kb size. That's inpossible. 2) The rpmbuild -ba zbr.spec indeed installs the software in the building stage. That's odd, isn't it ? Following my signature is an openssl.spec file Any help would be appreciated. Warm regards, M?rio Gamito --
