Heres modifying the the process. I was able to build the rpm however not sure if whatever i have followed is correct or not.(Will read the rpm build process in detail)
How can i modify it to include more than one script files.
Here is the process .
I want to create rpm that is not built by compiling from source code.However they contains a bunch of files.
I just need to package them in order to be able to install them on multiple machines.
1st i have created a normal user as rpmbuild should be done by normal user and not the root.
Code:
# adduser rpmuser
# passwd rpmuser
Changing password for user rpmuser.
New UNIX password:
BAD PASSWORD: it is based on a dictionary word
Retype new UNIX password:
passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully.
Then created below folders under home directory.
Code:
$ mkdir mybuild
$ mkdir rpmbuild/BUILD
$ mkdir rpmbuild/RPMS
$ mkdir rpmbuild/RPMS/i386
$ mkdir rpmbuild/SOURCES
$ mkdir rpmbuild/SPECS
$ mkdir rpmbuild/SRPMS
Code:
Created .rpmmacros file in home directory to include below lines.
touch ~/.rpmmacros
%_topdir /home/rpmuser/rpmbuild
Created directory
Code:
mkdir -p /home/rpmuser/rpmbuild/SOURCES/myrpm
Edited spec file as below.
Code:
$ cat ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/myrpm.spec

Copy the script files to below location.
Code:
$ ls -ltr /home/rpmuser/rpmbuild/SOURCES/myrpm/
total 0

Created buildrpm file(with little modification) @ below location.
Code:
$ ls -ltr /home/rpmuser/rpmbuild

content of the file.
Code:
$ cat buildrpm
#!/bin/bash
if [ -z "$1" ];then
echo "You didn't specify anything to build";
exit 1;
fi
cd ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES
# delete older versions of the rpm since there's no point having old
# versions in there when we still have the src.rpms in the SRPMS dir
find ~/rpmbuild/RPMS -name ${1}-[0-9]\* -exec rm -f {} \;
#find /usr/src/packages/RPMS -name ${1}-[0-9]\* -exec rm -f {} \;
# if there's a directory containing the source, as there will be
# for all our own packages, then delete any .tar.gz file that may exist
# for the package and create a new one.
if [ -d ${1} ] ;then
rm -f ${1}.tar.gz;
tar zcf${h_or_not} ${1}.tar.gz ${1};
fi
# build the package
rpmbuild -ba ../SPECS/${1}.spec
# if there is a directory, then delete the .tar.gz again
if [ -d ${1} ] ;then
rm -f ${1}.tar.gz;
fi
Finally.
