All the packages I've built to date use a tarball as the base source. A lot of open source projects are going to Subversion for version control and I'm wondering if anyone's created a spec file that can serve as an example for using a repository tag instead of a tarball as a source? Would one need to do much more than replace a "tar xfz" with a "svn co" in the %prep? Anything else I should worry about?
Yep. About all you have to worry about is whether you want a persistent checkout, in which case you need to test whether check-out exists (or not), and update instead of initial checkout. 73 de Jeff _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
