This is useful if you want to build your own packages from source or modify one
of the packages that comes with EFW or rebuild all of EFW from source.
The problem with the current situation is that only the source RPMs are
provided, the -devel packages required to build them are not. Also there aren't
any scripts to go from the SRPMs to getting an ISO you can install.
Without the binaries packages glibc-devel and libstdc++ which are not available
from Endian you can't rebuild any of the packages. The environment I created
supplies those two binary packages and a set of scripts that are used to
rebuild all the source rpms in the correct order and installs the resulting
-devel packages.

|
| | Here are the absolutely required SRPMs:
|
| | installer-?-?.src.rpm
|
| | libsmooth-?-?.endian1.src.rpm
|
| | libgcrypt-1.4.6-3.endian1 .src.rpm
|
| | libgpg-error-1.10-1.endian1 .src.rpm
|
| | These SRPMs are required to match the RPMs on update.endian.org:
|
| | efw-dnsmasq-2.7.12-0.endian16
|
| | efw-firewall-2.7.15-25.endian30
|
| | efw-network-2.7.23-0.endian33
|
| | efw-proxy-2.7.8-2.endian12
|
| | efw-upgrade-2.7.3-0.endian2
|
| | efw-vpn-2.7.27-0.endian13
|
| | emi-2.7.73-0.endian9
|
| | Just to whet everyone's appetite, here is all that is required to
| | go
| | from nothing to building your own ISO using the new environment
|
| | Install the standard ISO (configured as gateway) with SSH enabled,
| | then SSH into the new installation.
|
| | 1) efw-upgrade (select 2 Development)
|
| | 2) curl -O <path to be provided>/efw-devel.tar.gz
|
| | 3) tar -C /var -xf efw-devel.tar.gz
|
| | 4) cd /var/devel
|
| | 5) curl -LO
| |
http://sourceforge.net/projects/efw/files/Development/EFW-2.5.1/EFW-COMMUNITY-2.5.1-201201271721-SRPMS.tar.gz
|
| | 6) tar -xf EFW-COMMUNITY-2.5.1-201201271721-SRPMS.tar.gz
|
| | 7) /var/devel/setup-devel
|
| | 8) /var/devel/build-pkgs
|
| | 9) /var/devel/build-iso /var/tmp/efw.iso
|
| | To create a new ISO using an updated SRPM, for example say you
| | updated the installer
|
| | 1) Copy the new installer-X-Y.src.rpm to the appropriate directory
| | in
| | the SRPM_SEARCH_PATH.
|
| | 2) rpmbuild --rebuild --target i586-pc-linux `find_srpm installer`
|
| | 3) /var/devel/build-iso /var/tmp/new-efw.iso
