Simple C: Beyond Bash Part 2 - Dependency lister for dir branch (recursive)

CHANGELOG

* Sat Feb 18, 2012 -rs

find-deps version 1.2

In 'find_elf()' changed pipecmd to "find * -executable -o name *.so*" because some libs
may not have have their executable flag set, such as an unpacked from an rpm package that
doesn't have the perms set until install time....

Datz simple!
1. Create a temp directory

Mypaint-0.5.0 .spec

Posted 01-05-2011 at 07:41 AM by unSpawn

Tags mypaint, rpm, spec file

Mypaint is a open-source graphics application for use with a tablet. It kind of looks like Fractal Design Painter must have looked at alpha 0.1 stage. Nonetheless worth a try building a package. Here's a spec built, tested and installed on Centos 5.5 Intel. Note it doesn't build for x86_64 as I have none:

Code:

%define debug_packages  %{nil}
%define debug_package %{nil}
%define name mypaint
%define ver 0.5.0
%define rel 1
Name: %{name}

Rsyslog-4.6.3 .spec

Posted 07-28-2010 at 11:59 PM by unSpawn

Tags rpm, rsyslog, spec file

Rsyslog is a Syslog replacement. Centos5U5 provides rsyslog-3.22.1-3.el5.i386 but the development branch is at 5.5.6 and the stable release is 4.6.3. Here's a .spec file that will build 4.6.3-1 (this wasn't derived from the 3.22.1 .src.rpm .spec so YMMV(VM) as usual):

Code:

%define debug_packages	%{nil}
%define debug_package %{nil}
%define name rsyslog
%define ver 4.6.3
%define rel 1

Name: %{name}
Summary: Enhanced system logging
