RPM packaging

RPM packaging

[Adam Luchjenbroers]

Where can I find tutorials on packaging my own RPMs?

Also, if I install a source RPM, is it as easily removable as a regular RPM. 
What known techniques are there to tie multiple packaging systems together 
(eg, Loki style game distribution).

try freshrpms.net - They have a short, yet helpful tutorial there. rpm.org the 
official site also has info there. I would suggest trying freshrpms.net first 
before moving on to the more technical info.

We use apt (Advanced packing tool) found in Debian GNU/Linux together with RPM 
in our distribution (Voodoo Linux).  Using our version of kpackager it's 
closely resembles the Loki Update tool.

Just "closely resembles" or does it actually integrate with it.
