The Makefile for this application does not support the "DESTDIR" install
variable. You'll probably need to use the %makeinstall macro in the
%install section of a spec file instead of "make install
DESTDIR=/var/tmp/videotrans"
Thanks again, Paul. Let us try now fedora-newrpmspec. How should I use
it to get the spec file?
fedora-newrpmspec packagename
