To RPM guys,
I have a directory tree, created from "make install DESTDIR=...". Now, I want to make RPM package from the tree. Online docs are too verbose and confusing. 1. Is there GUI app with appropriate fill in boxes? 2. Is there command line utility? In Slackware, it's just "makepkg".
You need a "spec" file, which is a single formatted file giving the recipe for building the package for that system. There's a command line utility called "vi" that I've found very helpful when I've had to construct these files. Anthony
