RPM Development Tools
rpmdevtools contains many scripts to aid in package development. If you have any additions/fixes to the existing tools, please open a Bugzilla report against the Fedora rpmdevtools component. See also rpmdevtools in CVS .
Before version 5.0 (introduced in Fedora Extras for FC5), rpmdevtools was called fedora-rpmdevtools, and many scripts had a fedora- prefix instead of the current rpmdev- one.
| rpmdev-setuptree | Create RPM build tree within user's home directory |
| rpmdev-diff | Diff contents of two archives |
| rpmdev-newspec | Creates new .spec from template |
| rpmdev-rmdevelrpms | Find (and optionally remove) "development" RPMs |
| rpmdev-checksig | Check package signatures using alternate RPM keyring |
| rpminfo | Print information about executables and libraries |
| rpmdev-md5 | Display the md5sum of all files in an RPM |
| rpmdev-vercmp | RPM version comparison checker |
| spectool | Expand and download sources and patches in specfiles |
| rpmdev-wipetree | Erase all files within dirs created by rpmdev-setuptree |
| rpmdev-extract | Extract various archives, "tar xvf" style |
rpmdevtools when installed also pulls in (roughly) the explicit minimum build environment as defined in packaging guidelines , and contains (X)Emacs helpers that integrates rpm-spec-mode.el with rpmdev-newspec.
