Need halp with rpmbuild command
 
I need to use "rpmbuild" command but I get "command not found" error. What do I need to install to give me this command. I have only had linux installed for a few days so please give detailed instrucions. I need to not only know which package to get but where to get it from and probably how to install it.

If you don't know how to install rpm packages, I wonder why you'd need rpmbuild, which is as far as I know used to build up rpm packages from source code, to be installed as binaries; so if you don't know how to install rpmbuild you wouldn't know how to install an rpm that's built using it, and I seriously doubt you would even know how to use it..

To get it, use Google or rpm.pbone.net to search the rpm package that contains rpmbuild (the executable). Download it, and double-click it to install. Then read the documentation, then start using it..but what do you need it for?

I might not know how to do much with linux but I can follow instructions. I can install rpms. I tried to show that as I dont know much bout linux I wanted the reply to be as complete as possible without just saying something like google for it.
