Checkinstall is pretty good. It makes an RPM or DEB by watching what "make install" does. You can also start by extracting a similar source RPM and doctor the spec file to fit.

Building RPMs is grown-up stuff. :) _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
