Grab the .spec file and have a go at i already did this (for el6 - see below) .. i have the rpms, but at this moment would be for me too time consuming to learn how to make a repo. i imagined that for professionals (that did this thousands of times) would take very little time to rebuild the rpms and put in their repo (repo that is installed on all my machines) > updating it yourself.

Also, if you show up to an interview and say you build well, on el5 doing the exactly the same things like on el6 there are some files that are not found (this is for rrd) .. so i was hopping to have at least some guidance.. (another bad thing is that i dont have a virtual machine for building and i tried this on an old production server (as an dedicated user)) In the end (when the importance of time for doing this will be greater than my current job activities) i will follow this info: http://repoforge.org/package/ http://repoforge.org/package/quickstart.html http://repoforge.org/package/rebuild.html Thanks!
