Hi, everybody!
Recently I was working on an RPM spec for Fedora as it doesn't have an
officially maintained package, so I began to write my own. The spec is
fairly simple, but there is the only one problem I want to discuss with
you.
In src/Makefile.am on line 400 there is command for absolute symlink,
which is an error for RPM package builder, so I fixed it with the
following patch before starting build:
@@ -400 +400 @@
- $(LN_S) $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/pd $(DESTDIR)$(libpdbindir)/pd
+ $(LN_S) -r $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/pd $(DESTDIR)$(libpdbindir)/pd
I was trying to be as close as possible to INSTALL.txt, but I'm a
newbie in Pd development as well as in RPM spec writing, so I can do
everything completely wrong. I'm sorry if that's the case.
Is it possible to fix the aforementioned issue upstream or is there a
better way to approach this problem?
I also noticed that there is an RPM spec in linux/ directory in repo,
but is seems it was not updated for 14 years or so. Is there any chance
you update it in a future?
Thank you,
Vitaly
