And if you're sick of seeing the invalid packager error from rpmlint you
can make a .rpmlintrc file and put this in it:
addFilter("W: .* invalid-packager .*")

You need to upload the source rpm in ftp.mandrake-linux.com/incoming and warn Lenny. But you don't have to wait it has been officialy integrated to make it available to rest of the world. Cooker is a good place for such advertisement. Also, i recommend using rpmproc for helping in these tasks. -- Guillaume Rousse <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> GPG key http://lis.snv.jussieu.fr/~rousse/gpgkey.html
[Cooker] Contributing packages (gtranslator, for example)
Hi all. I just suscribed yesterday because I'm interested in contributing some packages to Mandrake. I wrote Lenny a month ago, but I got no response, so I'll try now in this list. I started "working" for Mandrake Linux (translating) two or three years ago, and I'd like to keep on contributing by packaging software. I have read the "mdk-rpm howto", and I've followed the steps there. There is only one thing I can't do: sign my packages (because I dont't have a "*@mandrakelinux.com" email address). OK. Now, I've made gtranslator package. I've placed the SRPMS in ftp://ftp.linux-mandrake.com/incoming/gtranslator-0.40-1mdk.src.rpm. So, I've two questions: 1. How can I sign my packages (who can give me a *@mandrakelinux.com redirection)? 2. I need to know who I should write to add this package to contrib. Thanks for all. Regards. -- Juan Manuel García Molina [EMAIL PROTECTED]
