fedora-newrpmspec packagename
You mean
fedora-newrpmspec videotrans-1.5.1.tar.bz2
or only
fedora-newrpmspec videotrans-1.5.1
I mean:
fedora-newrpmspec videotrans
This will generate videotrans.spec, which will contain *no*
videotrans-specific information other than the package name. You need to
fill that in yourself. You really need to read some of the rpm-building
guides, such as:
http://freshrpms.net/docs/fight/
http://rpm.org/max-rpm-snapshot/
http://www.gurulabs.com/GURULABS-RPM-LAB/GURULABS-RPM-GUIDE-v1.0.PDF
And be sure to build your packages as a regular user rather than as root:
