Building a RPM is quite straightforward. Since this package already available in earlier releases, you only need to fetch it source RPM. http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/26/dist/73/size/297373/name/linuxdcpp-1.0.3-4.fc12.src.rpm And then install and rebuild it: $ rpm -i linuxdcpp-1.0.3-4.fc12.src.rpm $ cd ~/rpmbuild/SPECS $ rpmbuild -ba linuxdcpp.spec NOTE: It will probably fail due to missing dependencies: error: Failed build dependencies: scons is needed by linuxdcpp-1.0.3-4.fc16.x86_64 gtk2-devel >= 2.10.0 is needed by linuxdcpp-1.0.3-4.fc16.x86_64 glib2-devel >= 2.14.0 is needed by linuxdcpp-1.0.3-4.fc16.x86_64 libglade2-devel >= 2.4.0 is needed by linuxdcpp-1.0.3-4.fc16.x86_64 bzip2-devel is needed by linuxdcpp-1.0.3-4.fc16.x86_64 Which can be easily fixed by installing them: $ sudo yum install gtk2-devel glib2-devel libglade2-devel bzip2-devel Now do it again. $ rpmbuild -ba linuxdcpp.spec Thats should be it. An even easier way is to build via Koji infrastructure. http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3852281 HTH /tuxdna _______________________________________________ india mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/india
