Github user edespino commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/incubator-hawq/pull/1177 As a general spec file to produce a pre-built binary releaes of HAWQ, this is a good starting point. Ideally, the spec file will also have a "build" section which is used to build the release from a source tarball. You can view the Apache Bigtop repository (https://github.com/apache/bigtop/tree/master/bigtop-packages/src/rpm) to see references to spec files which will build their respective products from source. Here are two more helpful references to spec files containing build sections: * https://github.com/hurdad/impala-rpm/blob/master/impala.spec * https://github.com/apache/httpd/blob/trunk/build/rpm/httpd.spec.in
