Day Sent: Tuesday, October 16, 2007 11:21 AM To: rpm list Subject: how to build a patched binary rpm from a source rpm? what's the canonical way to build a modified binary rpm from the original source rpm? i can download the source rpm, install it under my own "rpms/" directory, then run: $ rpmbuild -bp <spec file> to run the prep stage. at that point, i can mess with the source, but it's not clear what command to invoke to have the build pick up at that point and finish off the build to create the (now modified) binary rpm. i would have thought this would involve "--short-circuit" in some way, but that doesn't seem possible. help? rday - -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
