Hi all,

Somebody knows from what repo can I download gnomebaker rpm for Centos 4.2 ???

Thanks.

I built an rpm on my CentOS4 U2 box if you want it. Mail me off list and I'll send it off to ya. I built a binary and a src rpm. This is only the second rpm I've ever made and I'm sure the spec file is quite idiotic, but it does installand run in the correct menu even on my system. It requires: cdrecord readcd cdda2wav mkisofs gstreamer0.8(vorbis, mad, flac and misc packages) ibgnomeui-2.0 gtk+-2.0 >= 2.4 libglade-2.0 dvd+rw-tools

as a basic set. I did not place these things into the spec file. I'm not exactly sure what the syntax is when requiring multiple items/packages. If someone could point me to a good tutorial and process on researching this I would love that (I used google to make the rpm for gnomebaker already so yes I did google search).

Hi Alex,

One guide often quoted to people starting with Spec Files and rpm building is the GuruLabs Guide to building quality RPMS. Get it at: http://www.gurulabs.com/goodies/guru+guides.php

You will also find lots of info at the Max-RPM-Snapshot guide at : http://www.rpm.org/max-rpm-snapshot/

and the recently launched http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/drafts/rpm-guide-en/

If you want, come into irc - #centos@irc.freenode.net, lots of people there who understand rpm's, some are even helpfull :)
