Fedora/RHEL/CentOS RPM ?

[devhen]

Hey guys.

I'm wondering if there is an RPM available, or plans for such.

Thanks,
Devin

Anyone up for writing a script similar to the Debian packager with PTS but for RH/Fedora? I've received three messages today asking for an RPM.

Sadly, my Fedora/RHEL skills are evaporating as well as those system installations.

I can probably put one together, but the process is a little different to .deb

That'd be spectacular.

but the process is a little different to .deb

Right, I still remember that much :)

What I had meant with my statement was in regards to its process of being able to run the file and it will generate the resulting RPMs easily (Also similar to the ATI packaging scripts).

As depends are no real problem you could try alien too.

I was thinking about that, but even though the only depends there are php-cli and php-gd, I'd still like to have a clean solution and making it easy to build for end-users.

This should do it, it's a little complicated thanks to some annoying quirks of rpm.
