Topic: Learn from contrib SRPM's

[skydivers]

Hi there,

I was wondering if I could open up some contrib SRPM's (like the ones from dungog) to see how they are made, how they are configured. I want to make some contribs myself (webapps) but I first like to learn from other contribs how they are made.

Can someone help me to "read" some SRPM's.

Thanx

Code: [Select]

rpm -i myrpm-1.5-0.2.src.rpm

and go to see what you can find in /usr/src/redhat/SPECS ans /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES


otherwise you can just double click on it under midnight commander and explore it.

And read the developers manual. It gives a very good desription of how to modify smeserver and also how to package your own apps http://wiki.contribs.org/SME_Server:Documentation:Developers_Manual
