More Information

These instructions are based on theJPackage Rebuilding Instructions.

Initial Setup

Before you can run rpmbuild, you need to setup a directory tree and a.rpmmacros file.

Full directions here

Installing the Source RPM

Make sure to complete the "Initial Setup" section first as the installstep uses the .rpmmacros file and rpm tree you created.

Download the source rpm to /tmp.

Install the rpm, you do '''not''' want or need to be root for thiscommand.

rpm -U /tmp/xxx-yyy.src.rpm

NOTE - It is common to see a series of warnings about users and groupsthat don't exist. These may be safely ignored:

warning: user mockbuild does not exist - using rootwarning: group mockbuild does not exist - using rootwarning: user mockbuild does not exist - using rootwarning: group mockbuild does not exist - using rootwarning: user mockbuild does not exist - using rootwarning: group mockbuild does not exist - using rootwarning: user mockbuild does not exist - using rootwarning: group mockbuild does not exist - using rootwarning: user mockbuild does not exist - using rootwarning: group mockbuild does not exist - using rootwarning: user mockbuild does not exist - using rootwarning: group mockbuild does not exist - using rootwarning: user mockbuild does not exist - using rootwarning: group mockbuild does not exist - using rootwarning: user mockbuild does not exist - using rootwarning: group mockbuild does not exist - using root

The installation should have deposited a spec file in${HOME}/rpm/SPECS and a bunch of source files in ${HOME}/rpm/SOURCES.

Building the Package

Change directories to the rpm/SPECS subdirectory.

cd ${HOME}/rpm/SPECS

Kick off the build:

rpmbuild -bb packagename.spec

Some packages take quite a while to build.

Harvesting the Binary RPM

When the build completes, the binary rpms are deposited in rpm/RPMS.

ls -lart ${HOME}/rpm/RPMS

Enjoy!
