I guess you see why I'm simply removing all of that stuff as I restructure the document.  Thanks for saving me the hassle of figuring out which of those links and which don't. [[User:Tibbs|Tibbs]] ([[User talk:Tibbs|talk]]) 23:59, 26 September 2016 (UTC)

I came to clean up a few things because a user pointed out that he got poor advice from this page, and I realized as I started fixing things that it really needs an overhaul.  So I've added an "under construction" note and will be converting everything to use fedpkg throughout.  I apologize to any translators who are going to see a wall of edits.

Revision as of 00:30, 27 September 2016

There are tons of tutorials on how to create RPM packages, but many of them are obsolete, or don't include the important Fedora-specific stuff. This page gives the basics, with links to more information. I had to use many different sources to come up with this page - which was the problem in the first place.

The documentation for the -c option for the %setup macro doesn't seem to match how things work. -c just seems to trigger directory creation, but not choose the name. You still need to use -n name if you want a specific name.
