Hello,
I'm trying to build two RPMs within a CMake project that defines a
library. Let us call the package toto. I then want a:
- toto-<version>-<arch>.rpm which contains the library and the compiled
examples
- toto-devel-<version>-<arch>.rpm which contains the headers,
documentation, pkg-config file
I'm doing so by defining 2 components : binary and devel ; I then
specify the appropriate COMPONENT option to the install commands. So,
filling in the different RPMs with the right files is ok.
However, I'm facing several difficulties:
- For handling the dependencies: I don't find any variables for
defining individual dependencies for each component , there is only a
global CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_REQUIRES and no
CPACK_RPM_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_REQUIRES. Typically, If toto depends on
some package titi , then toto-devel will depend on titi-devel;
- For the name of the rpm: when calling rpm -qpi on the generated rpms,
the name field is of the form (as defined in CPackRPM.cmake):
\@CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_NAME\@\@CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_COMPONENT_PART_NAME\@ ,
but if I'm not wrong, my first RPM should have a field "Name: toto" and
the devel package a field "Name: toto-devel"; Therefore, I should find a
way to modify the name within the spec file generated by CPackRPM
- For the filename: finally, the RPM files generated by CPackRPM have
the component name appearing at the end of the filename, just before the
".rpm"; Going through CPackRPM, the _rpmfilename is set to
\@CPACK_RPM_FILE_NAME\@ which equals ${CPACK_OUTPUT_FILE_NAME}
I'm using cmake 2.8.8.
I looked around searching for cmake projects which are doing what I
thought standard. I looked at Compiz which is using cmake, and for which
I was able to find both devel and non-devel rpms for fedora, but I don't
find the way they solved it. Actually ,generating the rpms from their
sources, I obtain a single RPM which contain everything (libs, headers,
..) . I didn't find a cmake project which is doing what I'm looking for;
But maybe I'm not doing it in the right way ? I could solve it by
defining my own spec file instead of using the CPackRPM generated spec
file but I'm curious about the right way to do it.
Thanks for your help,
Jeremy.
