I tried that with the src rpm from redhat and their spec file had a lot in it I didn't understand. And the documentation on rpm.org seems to be a little dated. So I wasn't sure what I could remove and what I should not touch. So I was trying to create a more simplified spec file but didn't have much luck. -----Original Message----- From: rpm-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:rpm-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Huw Lynes Sent: Thursday, December 09, 2004 10:28 AM To: RPM Package Manager Subject: Re: Building my first rpm On Thu, 9 Dec 2004 09:58:56 -0500 "Lehman, Jason (Registrar's Office)" <Jlehman@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > I am trying to build my first rpm.

Any help would be appreciated. I would take the SPEC file out of the the PHP SRPM for your distro and use that as a base rather than starting from scratch. > Also I am on a Redhat 3 AS version of linux. > > Summary: The PHP HTML-embedded scripting language.
