Two reasons. First, it's the latest cvs, and second I've never made rpms
before, so I'm doing it as practice. Not that I'm doing much. I'm just
modifying the spec files from suse's rpms and using them on the latest cvs
sources. But it's a learning experience going through the specs and
understanding what everything does.
But mostly because it's fun :)
