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:

Im trying to learn how to create RPMs but am a little confused by the spec file. Im trying to package up some Python scripts, rather than binary files, and I want them to be installed in a subdirectory under /usr/local which I shall refer to as /usr/local/X Ive put the scripts in a tarball under /home/me/X/RPM/SOURCES but Im getting terribly confused over what to put in the? %build %install

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

I have a couple of questions regarding openssh.spec and the rpm that gets generated from it. I am using 2.3.0p1 1. Why is openssl a prereq? openssh statically links to openssl during build by default (rightfully so, you don't want your security library a shared object if possible) 2. I don't understand the following line in the spec file during the install step (it makes it not build for

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

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

I am trying to build an rpm package for iaxmodem-1.2.0. At the moment I am still trying to get a working spec file put together. I have managed to get an SRPM produced but the binary build from this fails due to there being no install task in the Makefile.in provided with the source. I have found a spec file from opensuse that provides this in the install portion: %build [

Hey all, I'm attempting to build a spec file of php 5.6.7 - the latest stable - into an rpm.

I have the latest kernel with the drivers for my 3ware 9550SX built in. Where can I find the tools and monitoring apps for this card? Are there rpms hiding somewhere, or do I need to build it from source? -- Bowie

(I've just tried this on a second C7 box, literally clean install, only did it on Friday, with the same results) I'm replacing a dead F19 box with a new C7 one and I'm trying to get my Perl install completed. Ultimately, I need to get Selenium::Remote::Driver working, but I'm struggling before that. I started off as always by using RPM's for everything I possibly can. I
