[CentOS] Miredo 1.1.5
I found a src.rpm for 1.1.5-1 for fc8 (not rh8!). I was able to rebuild it on my Centos build system. The rpms are identified as 1.1.5-1.i386.rpm, no el5 or other identification was placed in the files. I don't see how to control this when you rebuild from an existing src.rpm. Interestingly the fc8 designation was lost. I also rebuild it on my fc10 system. It worked, and the rpms have fc10 in their names. Don't know how well they will work. I will be trying them over the next couple weeks. If anyone wants a copy, let me know ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Look inside the .spec file. The Release line should contain a dist tag
as follows:
Release:1%{?dist}
The 1 will vary of course.
Then, when you build, just define the dist flag to be what you like:
% rpmbuild --define 'dist .el5' whatever.spec

OK. I am almost getting it.
I did a: rpmbuild --rebuild miredo.1.1.5-1.fc8.src.rpm
In otherwords, I did not even bother to open up the src rpm. I hope that
won't cause too much of an issue with what was built on Centos!
So do I then do:
rpmbuild --define 'dist .el5' --rebuild miredo.1.1.5-1.fc8.src.rpm

So I tried it and it works. At least it built the rpms with the .el5
string included (actually I used .el5.rgm so I would know it is mine).
