I have attached an updated RPM package spec for Xforms.
The following command:
$ rpm -bb xforms-0.88.spec
will produce the following RPM packages:
/usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/xforms-0.88.1-5.i386.rpm
/usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/xforms-devel-0.88.1-5.i386.rpm
the xforms package contains only
/usr/X11R6/lib/libforms.so (sym link)
/usr/X11R6/lib/libforms.so.0.88
/usr/X11R6/man/man5/forms.5 (sym link)
/usr/X11R6/man/man5/xforms.5
/usr/doc/xforms-0.88.1
/usr/doc/xforms-0.88.1/Bugs
/usr/doc/xforms-0.88.1/Changes
/usr/doc/xforms-0.88.1/Copyright
/usr/doc/xforms-0.88.1/Readme
the xforms-devel package contains all the rest,
including fdesign, libforms.a and the demos.
Summary of the things that I changed from the previous spec
(provided by <djk@tobit.co.uk>):
- moved fdesign and fd2ps to the xforms-devel package
Those apps are really useful only when developing with xforms.
- merged xforms-demo with xforms-devel
looks like it did not make a lot of sense to have a separate package
for the demos (they are very small compared to the devel
package, which is needed to use the demos...)
- added required dependencies (xforms-devel requires xforms)
I still couldn't find the right way to indicate that
xforms depends of libX11.so...
- removed i386 references
I think that this same spec can be used to generate RPM's for
alpha, ppc, ARM etc.
It would be nice if Xforms could be provided in RPM formats
on the Xforms website...
