Hello !
i'm trying to figure out what's the relation between the cvs spec
files and the .src.rpm files in the ftp repository for a given release,
say, E1.0 .
today i'm trying to install apache-1.3.37, but it does not seem
to include neither php nor any modules. Looking in the apache/ directory
below RPM/SRC, i can see that the spec file builts php and many useful
modules such as suphp, so i don't understand the relation.
when are the .src.rpm build ? are they re-build each time the
spec file changes (does not seem to be the case). So they are build once
per release, and if we need something bleeding edge, we can use the
RPM/SRC dir, right ?
is there a way to fetch automatically dependencies from inside
the spec file ? tried openpkg man .. but i just know the "build" command
at this time, and openpkg man openpkg does not refer to any other command,
except lsync, but it does not seem to be what i need.
is there some kind of "fetch" command, or is apt suited for this
task of fetching the sources before build ?
the best way i've found for the moment is to download the .src.rpm
file, uncompress it in the RPM/SRC/apache directory, but there are still
missing packages, that i download by hand before rpmbuilding -ba ..
any comments well apreciated :-)
