Hi, We'd like to simplify deployment of new blades and I need to package some of proprietary libs we are using, and obviously I don't have sources for them. Can anybody point me into good direction how to make packages from binaries? I have basic knowledge about building rpms, but it seems to be source oriented.
For the most part, you build them the same as you do normal rpms, you just use a dummy %build section, unless you actually have to work on the files. Take a look at some of the spec files at http://dag.wieers.com/packages/ particularly the w32codec, or the acroread plugin.
