Hi all,
sorry if I'm late to the party. I need to touch a package again for a local customization and with the transition to gitlab I wonder how the new process looks like. In the past I used the tools from git.centos.org/centos-git-common.git like get_sources.sh and into_srpm.sh to work locally on packages from git.centos.org/rpms/. The lookaside stuff were here git.centos.org/sources/.
So, how does one build a srpm nowadays? Where is the lookaside stuff? A look into https://docs.centos.org/en-US/stream-contrib/ didn't help.
BTW, I'm not an fedora dev. So, if the process looks like the fedora one then I have no idea. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
If you are using a Fedora, or RHEL based distro, then you can use centpkg.

If you need to do that for SIG related work, there is also centpkg-sig
