Hey all, First off, let me just get this out of the way: Not looking to get this package into the repo's or even into RPMFusion, I'm just playing around to help myself learn and I had this on hand. Trying to package Minecraft (which comes as a single Minecraft.jar), a desktop file for minecraft, and an icon file. Minecraft.jar, minecraft.desktop and minecraft.png are just sitting in my SOURCES directory. When I run: "rpmbuild -ba Minecraft.spec" I get yelled at about: File not found: /home/egriffith/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/Minecraft-1.0-1.fc21.x86_64/usr/bin/Minecraft.jar File not found: /home/egriffith/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/Minecraft-1.0-1.fc21.x86_64/usr/share/applications/minecraft.desktop File not found: /home/egriffith/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/Minecraft-1.0-1.fc21.x86_64/usr/share/icons/hicolor/256x256/apps/minecraft.png Go check out the BUILDROOT directory and its blank. Fair enough, I didn't tell it to copy or create anything, so I'm not surprised. I'm assuming that i should be creating the directory structure under %prep, yes? via "mkdir -p" but wouldn't it then get deleted when %install happened? and what would even be the correct command sequence? $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/%{_bindir}/ ? then copy %source0 into said directory? The spec file is copied below [BEGIN SPEC FILE] Name: Minecraft Version: 1.0 Release: 1%{?dist} Summary: Sandbox adventure game by Mojang AB License: Mojang Minecraft EULA URL: https://s3.amazonaws.com/Minecraft.Download/launcher/Minecraft.jar Source0: Minecraft.jar Source1: minecraft.desktop Source2: minecraft.png BuildRequires: java Requires: java %description "Java based Sandbox adventure game written by Mojang AB." %prep %build %install rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT %files %{_bindir}/Minecraft.jar %{_prefix}/share/applications/minecraft.desktop %{_prefix}/share/icons/hicolor/256x256/apps/minecraft.png %changelog * Sun Mar 1 2015 Eric Griffith - [END OF SPEC FILE] Any help would be appreciated guys & gals. As I said, I'm just trying to learn and experiment with different things. -- packaging mailing list packaging@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/packaging
