Hello!
Anyone knows this line:
rpm -ba ??
Redhat 9 (I think, maybe 8?) separated the commands for unpacking and repacking rpms. Previously
rpm -ba was to build an rpm from a spec file. You now need to use the rpmbuild function.
If you're dealing with a source rpm, just type in
rpmbuild --rebuild xxxx.srpm
It will dump rpm's in your /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/ix86 directory. Make sure you are root when you do this.
Cheers, Daniel
I´ve found a instruction for installing imap on FC1 (RH9) http://rmorales.modwest.com/rpms/cyrus-imapd/
Download
Download the source RPM <http://rmorales.modwest.com/rpms/cyrus-imapd/SRPMS/> to rebuild it in your system (recommended)
You can then do (you must be root for the following steps):
rpm -i cyrus-imapd-VVV-RRR.src.rpm
Now you can (in the /usr/src/redhat/SPECS directory) do:
rpm -ba /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/cyrus-imapd-....spec
And then you will have your personalized RPMs in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/<yourarchitecture>
But if i run this line
rpm -ba /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/cyrus-imapd-....spec
i just become
-ba: unknown option
Anyone knows whats wrong??
Thanks a lot!
