Hi All,
I am still trying to pack ZoneMinder for Cauldron.
Now rpms are generated and rpmlint is not complaining, but I am still
sure, it's not OK :) , that's why I need help.
Attached is the spec file, if somebody could have a look.
Here are my questions:
- where should go the installed files? (Zoneminder provides perl
modules, the site itself, CGI services , doc and conf).
conf -> /etc/ . I would try to see how does others distribution, to have
at least a similar path to ease the work of people changing distribution
site -> /var/www/zoneminder. Outside of the webroot, so people can
modify it with apache configuration
apache configuration -> /etc/httpd/conf.d/webapps.d/ , iirc
perl module -> like the other ( maybe jq can tell us the details )
cgi -> I think there is something in /usr/lib/cgi-bin, not sure. I guess
checking other cgi would help.
I don't have a /usr/lib/cgi-bi, but I have a /var/www/cgi-bin. Can I put
them into /var/www/cgi-bin/Zonedaemon ?
doc -> /usr/sharedoc, marked as such with %doc
- some files have no path's variable:
/usr/share/man/lib/perl5/5.14.1/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/perllocal.pod.xz
/usr/local/share/man/man3/ZoneMinder.3pm
...
Any idea, what it should be?
I do not understand the question :/
I don't know how to specify another path for those entries:
/usr/local/share/man/man3/ZoneMinder.3pm
In makefile I get the following:
INST_MAN3DIR = blib/man3
How to change this blib path not to point to /usr/local/... ?
- what should be the permissions for the site under the apache server?
that depend on what does the site. There is basically some people that
say "this should be 127.0.0.1 by default", and those that say "if people
installed it, they want to use it on a network and are able to configure
apache properly, so it should be opened"
- should the %install section creates the database table/permissions
for ZoneMinder? If so, is there any example how to achieve this?
Unfortunately, no. A server can be password protected, on another
computer, or using a specific database name.
I always wanted to have a proper framework for that ( like saying "this
is the sql file" and let some helper script take care of the rest, based
on configuration or offering a easy to use tools to create and install
database after installation ), but never wrote anything :)
- should the %install section creates the service launcher scripts? If
so, is there any example how to achieve this?
Yes. It was not migrated yet ( or maybe it was ), but this should be a
good start :

Thanks for your help!
