Hello,
Do 'cvs update', become root and do 'make rpm' - it'll create the binary and
source RPMs at the proper locations.
Restrictions:
- This has been tested on RedHat 7.0, no idea how will it work on other
distributions;
- Documentation included with the RPM package is by no means adequate. I was
thinking about adding the files generated by Doxygen to the package (as
well as to 'make dist'), but I don't want to shuffle them around myself.
Proposal is to create ${srcdir}/docs and generate into that directory, and
later deploy as part of 'make install'. Another consideration - well, may
be it *is* a good idea to make the website a part of the distribution?
Then, you'd have consistent site navigation all around...
- Can't make rpm install the package without --nodeps - complains about
missing libusb (right, I don't have the *package* installed) and libsafe
(beats me).
Other than that, works just fine...
