I have been able to install CDE on Scientific Linux 6.x (Intel 32 bits)
using the attached SPEC file to generate an RPM package.
The corresponding RPM (binary and source) are available at
http://edmond.orignac.pagesperso-orange.fr/cde-2.2.4-3.ed.el6.i686.rpm
http://edmond.orignac.pagesperso-orange.fr/cde-2.2.4-3.ed.el6.src.rpm
I believe these RPM files should work also on RHEL/CentOS/Oracle Linux
6.x but I haven't tested it.
The spec file is a modified version of the one created by David Cantrell
in 2012. I have noticed that David Cantrell has updated his spec file
for CDE 2.2.4:
https://github.com/dcantrell/cderpm/blob/master/cde.spec
But there are some differences between his spec file and mine:
I need to request libXScrnSaver-devel, ksh, ncompress as dependencies.
libXscrnSaver is needed for dtlock, ksh for the build process, ncompress
for the help function.
I would be interested to see whether the spec file can be used with
other RPM based Linux distributions (Fedora, Mageia, ALTLinux, SuSE
etc...) and whether non-Intel architectures (PPC, ARM etc...) can be added.
