How to install mod_ssl & apache (not apache-mod_ssl) from RPMs SRC (sources)

Fri, 01 Dec 2000 06:56:13 -0800

Hello .
 
I am installing a new Red Hat Linux server, due to a 'new political', I had to install every thing from 'program.src.rpm' , install the packs in this way is very simple using:
 
    # rpm --recompile 'program.src.rpm'
   
this generate the SPEC file, and then:
 
    # rpm -ba 'program.spec'
 
This generate the  binary RPM that could be installed as an normal RPM.
 
But the problem is, what happends if I had to install as in my case : Apache, mod_ssl and the frontpage extensions?
Till now I had been using the source codes compiled with the APACI method. I had been looking for information or guides about RPM installation but there is nothing clear about this. I think that could be as easy as recompile all the packs together with somtihng  like 'rpm -ba pack1.src.rpm pack2.src.rpm, or I need to make an .spec file for the apache in which I put the references to the modules?.
 
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks in advance.
