I'm having trouble with a simple function.
I CAN "rpmbuild -tb $name-$version.tar.gz"
I would like to "rpmbuild -tb $name.tar.gz" because this is how my CVS repo
packages them up. Currently I have to pull the source, grep the version
out of the specfile, rename the directory, tar it up with the version in the
name, then I can build it. Not bad, but when your packing up a 30 meg
complier this can take 10 minutes to download, unpack, rename, repack, then
let rpmbuild unpack....It would be sweet if I could just say "grab the tar
ball of a branch and work on that"
Here's my example
tree demo
demo
|-- demo.spec
|-- makefile
`-- src
`-- demo.c
Name: demo
Version: 8
Release: 1
Source0: %{name}.tar.gz
rpmbuild -tb demo.tar.gz
Executing(%prep): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.35145
+ umask 022
+ cd /home/zelston/rpm/BUILD
+ cd /home/zelston/rpm/BUILD
+ rm -rf demo-8
+ /usr/bin/gzip -dc /home/zelston/test/demo.tar.gz
+ tar -xf -
+ STATUS=0
+ '[' 0 -ne 0 ']'
+ cd demo-8
/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.35145: line 28: cd: demo-8: No such file or directory
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.35145 (%prep)
RPM build errors:
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.35145 (%prep)
It fails because my tar.gz doesn't unpack to a $name-$version/ which is what
I want.
Any ideas on how to tell rpmbuild to NOT demand a $version?
Thanks
