Subject: [PATCH] Update to the make rpm system kernel 2.4.17 and 2.5.1
Date: Fri, 4 Jan 2002 15:05:37 -0500 (EST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200201042005.g04K5bZ19255@mdtsoft.com> (raw)

I needed to be able to build a bit more complex set of rpm files than
the make rpm function allowed. Attached is a patch that will replace
the scripts/mkspec file with a perl program that generates a bit better
spec file, the change to the top level Makefile that will use perl not
bash for mkspec and a file for the Doc... directory explaining the changes.

If there is anyone using the make rpm could take a look at this and let
me know if it works with your build. I have tested this under a production
build based on 2.4.17 and a build with default configuration under 2.5.1
(I can't build any of my standard configuration for 2.5.1 due to buslogic
dirver problems) and it does what I intended it to.

the attachment is a gziped patch file made from /usr/src with diff -urN
