This has everything to do with Lazarus/fpc. Deploying your application
is part of the development. Think if the Wiki as a help file. Do you
consider a section about how to deploy applications a good thing for a
new user? I do think this page helps Lazarus/fpc users.
I created it because I found it overwhelmingly hard to find updated
and correct information about how to create a Makefile and a rpm
package.
Most tutorials out there are:
- horribly outdated
- extremely extensive
- hard to understand
- c-centric
- distribution specific
It took me months (yes, about 3 months at least) to finally be able to
create a makefile and something close to an acceptable RPM. The
objective of the page is to make it easier for others in the future,
who want to deploy their Lazarus software.
Your story isn't everywhere
completely correct, and some vital parts are missing.
Please contribute =)
You can correct it and try to write a rpm-tutorial yourself, but there
are lots of those already...
This isn´t ment to be an exaustive rpm-tutorial. It´s about how to
quickly create an rpm package for a lazarus / fpc software.
Most commonly used rpm-tutorial:
Yes, fell free to add a "External Links" section and put a complete
tutorial there.
