Would you tell me what modifications you had to make?

As i wrote in a previous post, i wasn't able to compile simply changing
the spec file with a %define kpackage=1. I compiled from source, but
kpackage later ran into several errors and it was pretty useless: it
would open but wouldn't perform any real operation with rpms.

I have put the hacked spec and a patch on web site so you can easily see the changes:

http://home.iprimus.com.au/mutk/kdeadmin/kdeadmin.spec.patch
http://home.iprimus.com.au/mutk/kdeadmin/kdeadmin.spec

BTW, there are a few extra packages and deps needed to be able to build. I hope (assume ) that since you were able to build from source successfully, you should be able to build from src.rpm using the spec file.

Here is what I installed to get the build to succeed:

I do have to ask why such a need for kpackage? It is quite nice to look at, but it doesn't appear to do anything more than a small number of commandline + options could acheive.


ie 'yum list' 'yum list available' 'yum info <somepackage>' 'yum update' 'yum install <somepackage'>

I haven't tried keeping a fedora machine up to date using kpackage. In fact I don't know where to start. I do see that it has capability to use apt, so maybe it can do it that way ?

Cheers,
Michael
