[SOLVED] RPM Creation Help

nitrohuffer2001 · 05-26-2017, 11:06 PM

Hello Folks,

I have been trying to create an RPM for two days now and I think I have gone retarded or something because I can not get rpmbuild to actually generate an rpm.

The RPM I want to create is really just a bunch of files that need to get placed into a directory and then have an install script ran against them.

Here is a snipit out of a script I wrote that extracts and installs the software:

Code:

     /bin/mount -t iso9660 /tmp/SecWorld-linux64-user-12.10.00.iso /mnt -o loop
                         for f in `find /mnt/linux/libc6_11/amd64/nfast/ -name '*.tar' `; do tar xvf $f; done
fi

# Move everything into the right places
/bin/mv /opt/nfast /ngs/app/nfast

# Link Everything up
/bin/ln -s /ngs/app/nfast/ /opt/nfast

# Actually install the software
/ngs/app/nfast/sbin/install

so basicly find some tars - extract them - move them to the correct location - run the installer. I would like to do this in an RPM and it seems like that should be a trivial task....not for me apparently.

Here is the latest in my endevours:

I created my env:

Code:

ls rpmbuild/
BUILD  BUILDROOT  nfast-1.0  nfast-1.0.tar.gz  RPMS  SOURCES  SPECS  SRPMS  tmp

Then:

Code:

~/rpmbuild]$ ll nfast-1.0/ngs/app/nfast/
total 68

drwxr-xr-x 6 myuser dev-group 4096 Feb 29  2016 toolkits

Here is my spec.file

Code:

Then I give myself one of these:

Code:

rpmbuild -bb rpmbuild/SPECS/nfast.spec

And.....fail.

Code:

Any help and or ideas would be super great. I have tried various different spec's and I am just missing something.

Thanks in advance!

So I updated my spec file as follows:

Code:

%define        __spec_install_post %{nil}
%define          debug_package %{nil}
%define        __os_install_post %{_dbpath}/brp-compress

Summary: A very simple bin rpm package
Name: nfast
Version: 1.0

SOURCE0 : %{name}-%{version}.tar.gz


BuildRoot: %{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-root

%description
%{summary}

%prep
%setup -q

%build
# Empty section.

%install
rm -rf %{buildroot}
mkdir -p  %{buildroot}/ngs/app/nfast




# in builddir
cp -ar *  %{buildroot}


%clean
rm -rf %{buildroot}


%files
%defattr(-,root,root,-)

/ngs/app/nfast

And it builds the rpm, yea....but I am stil broken.

If I give an rpm -qlp /path/to/rpm it looks good:

*snipit

Code:

rpm -qlp rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/nfast-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm
/ngs/app/nfast
/ngs/app/nfast/bin
/ngs/app/nfast/bin/analyse-warrant
/ngs/app/nfast/bin/anonkneti
/ngs/app/nfast/bin/bulkerase
/ngs/app/nfast/bin/cardpp
/ngs/app/nfast/bin/cfg-mkcardlist
/ngs/app/nfast/bin/cfg-mkdefault
/ngs/app/nfast/bin/cfg-pushnethsm
/ngs/app/nfast/bin/cfg-remoteslots
/ngs/app/nfast/bin/cfg-reread
/ngs/app/nfast/bin/checkmod
/ngs/app/nfast/bin/chkserv
/ngs/app/nfast/bin/ckcerttool
/ngs/app/nfast/bin/ckcheckinst
/ngs/app/nfast/bin/ckimportbackend
/ngs/app/nfast/bin/ckinfo
/ngs/app/nfast/bin/cklist

When I go to install:

Code:

sudo rpm -Uvh nfast-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm

error: Failed dependencies:
	/bldstore/vines/b.1449840038.15521.56/pysrc-0.29.1/own/spec/user/python/bin/python2.7 is needed by nfast-1.0-1.x86_64
	/opt/nfast/bin/nfast-tclsh8 is needed by nfast-1.0-1.x86_64
	/opt/nfast/python/bin/python is needed by nfast-1.0-1.x86_64
	/opt/nfast/python/bin/python2.7 is needed by nfast-1.0-1.x86_64
	/usr/local/bin/python is needed by nfast-1.0-1.x86_64
	libXss.so.1()(64bit) is needed by nfast-1.0-1.x86_64

/opt/nfast is default where it wants to go so i re-rolled the tar file with the original path and ran rpmbuild again.

and it looks better:

Code:

rpm -qlp nfast-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm
/opt/nfast
/opt/nfast/bin
/opt/nfast/bin/analyse-warrant
/opt/nfast/bin/anonkneti
/opt/nfast/bin/bulkerase
/opt/nfast/bin/cardpp
/opt/nfast/bin/cfg-mkcardlist
/opt/nfast/bin/cfg-mkdefault
/opt/nfast/bin/cfg-pushnethsm
/opt/nfast/bin/cfg-remoteslots
/opt/nfast/bin/cfg-reread
/opt/nfast/bin/checkmod
/opt/nfast/bin/chkserv
/opt/nfast/bin/ckcerttool
/opt/nfast/bin/ckcheckinst
/opt/nfast/bin/ckimportbackend

Then.....

Code:

rpm -Uvh nfast-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
	/bldstore/vines/b.1449840038.15521.56/pysrc-0.29.1/own/spec/user/python/bin/python2.7 is needed by nfast-1.0-1.x86_64
	/usr/local/bin/python is needed by nfast-1.0-1.x86_64
	libXss.so.1()(64bit) is needed by nfast-1.0-1.x86_64

Not sure why I would be getting this as I am just trying to blat everything out to the /opt/nfast dir.

Ideas?

Thanks

Hi,

If I run with --nodeps flag it's a winner. (sorta)

Code:

sudo rpm -Uvh nfast-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm --nodeps
Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
   1:nfast                  ########################################### [100%]

Then...

Code:

cd /opt/
[]$ ls
nfast  rh
[]$ cd nfast
[]$ ls
bin     etc       java  nethsm-firmware  python  scripts  sslclient  tcl       toolkits
driver  femcerts  lib   openssl          sbin    share    sslproxy   testdata

Now we are getting somewhere.

I just need to have the %post run the installer!

nitrohuffer2001 · 05-27-2017, 02:28 AM

Thanks for all the help everyone! /sigh

Added this to the above spec file:

Code:

/opt/nfast

%post
/bin/mv /opt/nfast /ngs/app/nfast

/bin/ln -s /ngs/app/nfast/ /opt/nfast

/ngs/app/nfast/sbin/install

%changelog

re rpmbuild and boom! Works like a champ.

Take aways: It takes about 2 days to read all the docs and tutorials before you get a grasp of building RPM's.

Thanks for all the help everyone (satire).
