One of the best books which I have used is RedHat RPM Guide. There is a free version of the book available in Fedora RPM project which explains the design principles & best practices.

Hope this helps!!

hello all,
can someone suggest a couple of good books / information sources on rpm packaging.
i really need a "ground up" introduction / best practices.
i have a production build environment running on linux using ant to do the build.
our packaging system (at this time) is a large .tar file (of a directory structure) that we distribute.
i need to convert all of this to rpms.
thank you
mark
