is it possible to turn a "make install" from filesystem to rpm? I want to have a individual rpm for my system so after "./configure & make & make installrpm" I just have to install the rpm. It would be easier to test something.
checkinstall
I have a script called ins that has the following: ##ins ./configure #obvious wait make $obvious wait sux -c 'checkinstall --rpmu --install=yes' # Make the RPM and install it wait createrepo /usr/src/packages/RPMS # Make it available for YaST in the future. Add that dir # as an installation source
but writing spec files is not rocket sience. see http://en.opensuse.org/SUSE_Build_Tutorial
It might be overkill if you just want to check out a program. I only use it for programs that I want to distribute to others. houghi -- Nutze die Zeit.
