Hi all - We use an application which is installed via an installer script and a tarball - it's not a source tarball. The installation process is kind of weird - you have to create a certain directory structure and unpack the tarball into it. Then you run two scripts which install the software. The scripts just create a config file, sets some permissions and adds a line to /etc/services. The config file is identical across every machine it is installed on except for a few small changes like hostname. I know what files and directories the installer script creates, and what the permissions are. So what I am thinking is I want to create an RPM to copy the files to the system and then in %post change the config file from a generic version to one with those small changes in it using sed. Has anyone done this? Is there a "best practice" on doing it? Or better yet, and example on the Web of the spec file?
