Instructions for creating Motif RPMS.
--------------------------------------------
Written by Jonathan Nierenburg (jon@ics.com)
Initial Release: 03/17/2004
--------------------------------------------
1. Check the source out of CVS or download the source tarball.
-If you downloaded the tar ball it should have the filename:
motif-x.x.x.tar.gz.
Unzip the source tarball file.
-If you checked out Motif from CVS do the following:
$ cd motif
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make dist
You should now have an motif-x.x.x.tar.gz file in your motif
directory.
2. Copy the motif-x.x.x.tar.gz to $RPMROOT/SOURCES
Note: $RPMROOT is usually /usr/src/redhat, /usr/src/RPMS, /usr/src/packaging
or something similar.
3. Copy the motif/distro/xmbind file to $RPMROOT/SOURCES.
4. Copy the motif/distro/motif.spec file into $RPMROOT/SPECS
5. Make any needed changes to the spec file such as version number or filename
updates.
Note: If you are building Mandrake RPMS you should append mdk to the end of
the Release variable.
6. As root, run the following command in $RPMROOT/SPECS:
rpmbuild -ba motif.spec
Note: If you are running an old version of rpm you will have to use:
rpm -ba motif.spec
The RPMS will be placed automatically into $RPMROOT/RPMS/$DEFAULT_ARCH/ and the source RPM will be placed in $RPMROOT/SRPMS.
