Java Packaging HOWTO mentioned by others is a good starting point. I would recommend you joining Java SIG [1], where you can find help with packaging, reviews, bugfixes etc. We have IRC channel and mailing list where you can communicate with us.

It's probably worth contacting the previous maintainers and find out why it was retired and any recommendations that they have for getting it going again.

introduction toogley | packaging intellij idea
Introduction Hello. I'm Tobias Angele (20 years old) and I want to contribute to fedora packaging the intellij idea package. I've made already some (really small) contributions, e.g. to debian: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/wicd.git/log/?qt=author&q=toogley and https://github.com/AndreaCrotti/yasnippet-snippets/commits?author=toogley . Additionally, I have some experience in Java(with maven)/C#/bash/object-orientated programming, but nothing big. * Github: https://github.com/toogley * GPG Key: https://keys.fedoraproject.org/pks/lookup?search=0xf20c5878e65b3b3a&op=vindex * IRC Nick: freenode -> toogley * FAS: toogley, FPCA is signed Packaging I've found http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/intellij-idea.git/ - I guess I can base my work on the spec file there, which I'm currently trying to understand, update and build. I think the best option for me is to create a github repo for packaging in the beginning. (as you probably don't trust me :D) I have already read or am reading https://fedoramagazine.org/day-life-fedora-packager/ and https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_an_RPM_package * Are there some important documents I should additionally read? * Do you have some tips for starting packaging, or dealing with the legacy status of the package? * I'm used to gpg-sign my git commits/tags by default. Should I continue this practice while packaging? I've read somewhere that some people don't want that, therefore my question. Thanks :) -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
