From 9ad2c858ce2980461d23e65b5ce702fe4e1b3edc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Simon John Date: Mon, 30 Dec 2013 16:07:36 +0000 Subject: Added package directory with RPM SPECfile (and instructions!) Linked to issue #144 Tested on Fedora 18, works fine except the ard-reset-arduino manpage displays [1m and [0m around some headings, might be a bug in help2man 1.41.2 as it works fine on Debian with 1.43.3, will try CentOS/OEL 6.5 next. I didn't update the changelog as I didn't know what the new development version is going to be. --- package/README.md | 19 +++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 19 insertions(+) create mode 100644 package/README.md (limited to 'package/README.md') diff --git a/package/README.md b/package/README.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..1798444 --- /dev/null +++ b/package/README.md @@ -0,0 +1,19 @@ +# How to compile an RPM + +From the top-level Arduino-Makefile directory you've checked out of github, run the following to create a compressed tarball using the naming conventions required by rpmbuild: + + git archive --prefix=arduino-mk-1.1.0/ --format=tar -o ../arduino-mk-1.1.0.tar.gz -v HEAD | gzip + +If you don't already have a rpmbuild setup (e.g. you've not installed the SRPM) you will need to create the directories: + + mkdir -p ~/rpmbuild/{SOURCES,SPECS} + +Then copy the tarball and specfile into place: + + cp ../arduino-mk-1.1.0.tar.gz ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/ + cp package/arduino-mk.spec ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/ + +Then compile.
