My test / development host runs CentOS-5.x x86_64. There I have successfully created an rpm for GiT-1.6.1-1 for x86_64. Now I would like to build the same rpm package for CentOS-5.x i386, but on the x86_64 machine.
Is this even possible? If so, are there any resources that someone can refer me too that explains how?
Yes. In fact, I suspect the i386 rpm's for CentOS are built on x86_64
The easy way -
rpmbuild --target="i386" foo.spec
You will need all the 32-bit devel libraries.
The proper way would be to install mock (the version in EPEL is best) and use that.
