making an RPM package ??
 
hello everybody,

i wanna make a small aoftware package using linux redhat 9, but it is failing and failing with errors i solved all of them i think now but it still making errors i don't know why ?!

do anyone did it before who can tell me trusted steps or a hyperlink to a trusted tutorial to do it

and here is the steps i did exactly, tell me what is wrong plzz
Quote:
files in hello-1.0 directory
hello.c:
# <include stdio.h>
main()
{
printf("Hello, World!\n");
}
Makefile:
all: hello

hello: hello.c
gcc -o hello hello.c
clean:
rm -f hello

install: hello
cp hello /usr/bin

README:
(c) Copyright ........

Then, i went back to /root directory and made a tar file of all these files, and gzip it
up.
» # cd /root
» # mkdir hello-1.0
» # cd hello-1.0
» # vi hello.c
» # vi Makefile
» # vi README
» # cd ..
» # tar -zcvf hello-1.0.tar.gz hello-1.0/

Copy the hello-1.0.tar.gz to /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
» # cp hello-1.0.tar.gz /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES

Create the /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/hello.spec file
» # vi /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/hello.spec
and here is the specs file

Start the RPM install stage .
» # rpm -bi /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/hello.spec
» # ls -lR /usr/src/redhat/BUILD
» # ls -l /usr/bin/hello
» # ls -l /usr/share/doc/hello-1.0
» # hello

Create the binary RPM .
» # rpm -bb /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/hello.spec
» # ls -l /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386
» # rpm -qilp /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/hello-1.0-1.i386.rpm

Create the source RPM .
» # rpm -ba /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/hello.spec
» # ls -l /usr/src/redhat/SRPMS
» # rpm -qilp /usr/src/redhat/SRPMS/hello-1.0-1.src.rpm
i tried to substitute $RPM_BUILD_DIR/ with the real directory, but also it failed

also i used rpmbuild instead of rpm as i am using redhat 9

THANKS A LOT
