Dear Sir, I have some querry about creating rpms. i have created a file called "abacos-2.1-1.spec" which is given below. ---------------------------------- Summary: Abacos project with MPI Name: abacos Version: 2.1 Release: 1 Copyright: GPL Group: Utilities/System Source : abacos.tar.gz BuildRoot: /home/animesh %prep -c %setup -c %description This program runs MPI for version 2.1 %topdir topdir=/home/animesh %build %topdir/abacos/toLinux/src2.1/make %topdir/abacos/toLinux/samples/make %install #cd /home/animesh/abacos-2.1 cp -r /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/abacos-2.1 /home/animesh/abacos-2.1 #install -s -m 755 abacos-2.1 /home/animesh/abacos-2.1 #install -s -m 755 -o 0 -g 0 abacos /home/animesh/abacos-2.1 #install -m 644 -o 0 -g 0 abacos.1 /home/animesh/abacos-2.1 %files #BUILD:/home/animesh/abacos-2.1 #SOURCES:/home/animesh/abacos-2.1 ------------------------------------------------------------- Doubts 1. The tar.gz is picked up by default from /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES directory. Can this be changed? 2. Right now, I donot have a make option for creating binary. How can I create one and in which directory should the makefile reside? 3. Also I am not able to install. So I just used copy command. Package is created but when I querry, it says not installed. How does one install? Can you give some ideas? Regards Animesh
