This directory contains spec files for building an RPM

Short instructions:
|
|
|
|
> I've never built an rpm; given a spec file, how do I do this?
|
|
> I understand the theory, just not clear on what to type up.

You'll need to be root. (It is possible to avoid this requirement,
|
|
but I haven't done the work to the RPM.)
|
|
|
|
cd /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
|
|
tar -zxvf xacc-1.x.tar.gz
|
|
cp xacc-1.x/rpm/xacc.spec ../SPECS
|
|
cp xacc-1.x/rpm/xacc.wmconfig .
|
|
|
|
cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS
|
|
rpm -ba xacc.spec
|
|
|
|
wait a bit, and a new binary rpm will be in
|
|
/usr/src/redhat/RPMS/<arch> and a new src.rpm will be in
|
|
/usr/src/redhat/SRPMS.

|
================================
|
|
|
|
JPL version:
|
|
|
|
1) Obtain a GnuCash distribution (source code .tar.gz file),
|
|
either by downloading from an ftp site somewhere, or building
|
|
from CVS using "make dist". The file should have the nomenclature
|
|
gnucash-X.Y.Z.tar.gz where X.Y.Z are the release numbers.
|
|
|
|
2) Copy and uncompress/tar the distribution in your
|
|
/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES directory. You will need to do this as the
|
|
root user. Note, use your distribution-specific path here, only
|
|
redhat uses "/usr/src/redhat".
|
|
|
|
cd /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
|
|
cp /SOMEPATH/gnucash-X.Y.Z.tar.gz
|
|
tar xvzf gnucash-X.Y.Z.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
3) Copy the rpm spec file to /usr/src/redhat/SPEC.
|
|
|
|
cp gnucash-X.Y.Z/rpm/gnucash.spec /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/.
|
|
|
|
4) Edit the spec file, you probably will only need to modify the
|
|
following 3 lines, depending on what features you want to include
|
|
in the rpm:
|
|
|
|
%define _with_postgres 0 (use postgres backend?)
|
|
%define _with_ofx 0 (use openofx package?)
|
|
%define _with_hbci 0 (use hbci package?)
|
|
|
|
5) Build the binary and source RPMs
|
|
cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS
|
|
rpmbuild -ba gnucash.spec
|
|
|
|
(note: older versions of rpm use "rpm -ba FILE.spec" to build)
|
|
|
|
6) Wait a bit, and a new binary rpm will be in
|
|
/usr/src/redhat/RPMS/<arch> and a new src.rpm will be in
|
|
/usr/src/redhat/SRPMS.
