Hello all, I have a wish to put up into the opensuse build service a rpm (factory) build of the following application, but I am stuck on constructing a good .spec file which will apply the patch to the kernel source ,and then compile it into an installable rpm, and I was wondering if you could help me with this please. It will be a steep learning curve for me as I am new to all this.
If you're new to the buildservice and rpm building, then I suggest you try packaging some simple program first.
You might also want to read some tutorials on the topic: http://en.opensuse.org/SUSE_Build_Tutorial http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service_Tutorial
The kernel is a bit different than other packages here, but actually quite simple, if you know how to ;) Have a look into the home:janblunck:kernel project for a good example of using kernel-source and applying an additional patch. bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) email: adrian@suse.de --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
