Thread: RPMS
Hi to all,
I downoladed the file postgresql-7.2.1-2PGDG.src.rpm
I did rpm -i postgresql-7.2.1-2PGDG.src.rpm
and the files was installed on
/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
/usr/src/redhat/SPECS
at this point I want create the RPM distribution,
I did:
$ cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS
$ rpm -bl postgresql.spec
and I have got a lot of errors.
I imagine that I should compile the stuff that are present in
the directory SOURCES, I don't have problem to do this
but I'm wondering about if somewhere exist an HOWTO.
If someone have some suggestion.....
Than you in advance.
Ciao
Gaetano

README.rpm-dist contains hopefully enough information to build it. Let me know if you get it to build. If not, I can try to help you, given a log of the build (rpm -ba postgresql.spec 2&>1 >logfile.log). -- Lamar Owen WGCR Internet Radio 1 Peter 4:11

Building an RPM from spec is quite usefull when you want to choose specific compilation options. Otherwise, if you don't need to modify compilation options, just go for : rpm --rebuild --target i586 postgresql.src.rpm which will rebuild a binary package. So why is it i586 and not i686? The answer is last time I compiled PostgreSQL 7.0 for i686, I got some errors; even with all libraries installed. From then, I always used the --target i586 flag. Cheers, Jean-Michel POURE
