Python application for rpm creation
Hello guys, Probably not right forum but I thought I should get some suggestions. I am looking for some tool written in python which can help users to create rpm spec files and later help to build rpms, this will be for users who are not aware of what spec file is and how to.create rpm. Anyone knows such tool? It will be great if has gui. Regards, Dj -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
