Cool, thanks.
I modified the template so the files section accounts for
files being installed into lib, and man in addition to bin.
So the files section now looks like this:
%files
%defattr (-, root, other)
%dir %attr (0755, root, bin) %{_bindir}
%{_bindir}/*
%dir %attr (0755, root, bin) %{_mandir}
%{_mandir}/*
%dir %attr (0755, root, bin) %{_libdir}
%{_libdir}/*
I also changed %setup from this:
%setup -q -n %name-%version
To this:
%setup -q -n <appname>-%version
(where a value for <appname> needs to be provided, and it
needs to be the top-level directory that the tarball unpacks
into.)
And that seems to result in a bare-bones, "base" template
that can be applied to a lot of regular, well-bahaved
packages -- where well-behaved = sources that are known to
build cleanly on Nevada with just ./configure ;gmake, and
where regular = packages that only install files in bin, man,
and lib.
By way of example, here's a working spec-files-extra spec
file for lynx using the template. I needed to enter the
%setup value (it's an non-standard one too BTW because the
lynx tarball unpacks into a directory with dashes where dots
should be), and the package's name, summary (one-line
description), version, and source (download url). The rest
came verbatim from the template.
