Hello all, I have been using Ubuntu (debian) system all through the Linux life. Recently I got into a situation where I am required to package a software for a RPM system (CentOS). There are rpm build tools available in the Ubuntu repos, but I my reading through the forums suggest that its always better to build rpms in a rpm based system.
Considering we will be specifying the dependencies in the packaging configuration file and we will be packaging compiled binaries, How far does it hold good?. Has anyone packaged RPM things on Ubuntu or any other debian system? What are the issues you ran into? Is there really any compatibility issues? P.S: I am asking all this to avoid another OS installation and dev environment setup procedure.
