« on: June 05, 2006, 01:39:04 pm »
Hello All
I've successfuly compiled my linux aplpication and would like now to create a RPM of my application.

KDE has such a thing... called KRPM or something.

Perhaps it would be worth the effort writing a spec file on your own (without using a graphical frontent, just using an editor :) ). It's not so hard if you once understood how it works. It has the advantage that rpm will exactly do what you want it to do :D

My resources for this are:
Fedora: RPM Guide (points 8.-12.)
Fedora Core Developer's Guide: 4.1 Spec File

the tool thomas meant is called krpmbuilder :)

I'll try to construct my spec file by hand ...
