It should be enough to provide a single text file named "rosegarden.spec", like the one that is already in the SVN repository, to be used as an example/template by the RPM packagers. Mandriva 2006 had a Rosegarden package already, but it was old and compiled without DSSI support. I had to build myself the RPM packages with DSSI and DSSI synths for Mandriva, and convince them to include these packages in the distribution, and finally build a Rosegarden-1.2.4 DSSI enabled for Mandriva 2007. So far so good. I've discovered later that they included also Rosegarden4-1.2.3 in Mandriva 2007. Why? Maybe there are some customer prefering a release with more bugs and less features? I don't know. Regards, Pedro ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
