.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fBrpmbuild\fR is used to build both binary and source software packages.
|
|
A \fBpackage\fR consists of an archive of files and
|
|
meta-data used to install and erase the archive files. The meta-data
|
|
includes helper scripts, file attributes, and descriptive information
|
|
about the package.
|
|
\fBPackages\fR come in two varieties: binary packages,
|
|
used to encapsulate software to be installed, and source packages,
|
|
containing the source code and recipe necessary to produce binary
|
|
packages.
|
|
.PP
|
|
One of the following basic modes must be selected:
|
|
\fBBuild Package\fR,
|
|
\fBBuild Package from Tarball\fR,
|
|
\fBRecompile Package\fR,
|
|
\fBShow Configuration\fR.
|
|
.SS "GENERAL OPTIONS"
|
|
.PP
|
|
These options can be used in all the different modes.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB-?, --help\fR
|
|
Print a longer usage message then normal.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB--version\fR
|
|
Print a single line containing the version number of \fBrpm\fR
|
|
being used.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB--quiet\fR
|
|
Print as little as possible - normally only error messages will
|
|
be displayed.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB-v\fR
|
|
Print verbose information - normally routine progress messages will be
|
|
displayed.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB-vv\fR
|
|
Print lots of ugly debugging information.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB--rcfile \fIFILELIST\fB\fR
|
|
Each of the files in the colon separated
|
|
\fIFILELIST\fR
|
|
is read sequentially by \fBrpm\fR for configuration
|
|
information.
|
|
Only the first file in the list must exist, and tildes will be
|
|
expanded to the value of \fB$HOME\fR.
|
|
The default \fIFILELIST\fR is
|
|
\fI/usr/lib/rpm/rpmrc\fR:\fI/etc/rpmrc\fR:\fI~/.rpmrc\fR.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB--pipe \fICMD\fB\fR
|
|
Pipes the output of \fBrpm\fR to the command \fICMD\fR.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB--dbpath \fIDIRECTORY\fB\fR
|
|
Use the database in \fIDIRECTORY\fR rather
|
|
than the default path \fI/var/lib/rpm\fR
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB--root \fIDIRECTORY\fB\fR
|
|
Use the file system tree rooted at \fIDIRECTORY\fR for all operations.
|
|
Note that this means the database within
|
|
\fIDIRECTORY\fR
|
|
will be used for dependency checks and any scriptlet(s) (e.g.
|
|
\fB%post\fR if installing, or
|
|
\fB%prep\fR if building, a package)
|
|
will be run after a chroot(2) to
|
|
\fIDIRECTORY\fR.
|
|
.SS "BUILD OPTIONS"
|
|
.PP
|
|
The general form of an rpm build command is
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fBrpmbuild\fR {\fB-b\fISTAGE\fB|-t\fISTAGE\fB\fR} [\fBrpmbuild options\fR] \fB\fIFILE\fB\fR\fI ...\fR
|
|
.PP
|
|
The argument used is \fB-b\fR if a spec file is being
|
|
used to build the package and \fB-t\fR if \fBrpmbuild\fR
|
|
should look inside of a (possibly compressed) tar file for
|
|
the spec file to use. After the first argument, the next
|
|
character (\fISTAGE\fR) specifies the stages
|
|
of building and packaging to be done and is one of:
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB-ba\fR
|
|
Build binary and source packages (after doing the %prep, %build, and
|
|
%install stages).
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB-bb\fR
|
|
Build a binary package (after doing the %prep, %build, and %install
|
|
stages).
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB-bp\fR
|
|
Executes the "%prep" stage from the spec file. Normally this
|
|
involves unpacking the sources and applying any patches.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB-bc\fR
|
|
Do the "%build" stage from the spec file (after doing the %prep stage).
|
|
This generally involves the equivalent of a "make".
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB-bi\fR
|
|
Do the "%install" stage from the spec file (after doing the %prep and
|
|
%build stages). This generally involves the equivalent of a
|
|
"make install".
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB-bl\fR
|
|
Do a "list check". The "%files" section from the spec file is
|
|
macro expanded, and checks are made to verify that each file
|
|
exists.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB-bs\fR
|
|
Build just the source package.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The following options may also be used:
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB--buildroot \fIDIRECTORY\fB\fR
|
|
When building a package, override the BuildRoot tag with directory
|
|
\fIDIRECTORY\fR.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB--clean\fR
|
|
Remove the build tree after the packages are made.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB--nobuild\fR
|
|
Do not execute any build stages. Useful for testing out spec files.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB--nopatch\fR \fISTRING\fB\fR
|
|
Do not include specified patches into source rpm file.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB--nosource\fR \fISTRING\fB\fR
|
|
Do not include specified sources into source rpm file.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB--rmsource\fR
|
|
Remove the sources after the build (may also be
|
|
used standalone, e.g. "\fBrpmbuild\fR \fB--rmsource foo.spec\fR").
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB--rmspec\fR
|
|
Remove the spec file after the build (may also be
|
|
used standalone, eg. "\fBrpmbuild\fR \fB--rmspec foo.spec\fR").
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB--short-circuit\fR
|
|
Skip straight to specified stage (i.e., skip all stages leading
|
|
up to the specified stage). Only valid with \fB-bc\fR
|
|
and \fB-bi\fR.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB--sign\fR
|
|
Embed a GPG signature in the package. This signature can be used
|
|
to verify the integrity and the origin of the package. See the
|
|
section on GPG SIGNATURES in
|
|
\fBrpm\fR(8)
|
|
for configuration details.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB--target \fIPLATFORM\fB\fR
|
|
When building the package, interpret \fIPLATFORM\fR
|
|
as \fBarch-vendor-os\fR and set the macros
|
|
\fB%_target\fR,
|
|
\fB%_target_cpu\fR, and
|
|
\fB%_target_os\fR
|
|
accordingly.
|
|
.SS "REBUILD AND RECOMPILE OPTIONS"
|
|
.PP
|
|
There are two other ways to invoke building with rpm:
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fBrpmbuild\fR {\fB--rebuild|--recompile\fR} \fB\fISOURCEPKG\fB\fR\fI ...\fR
|
|
.PP
|
|
When invoked this way, \fBrpmbuild\fR installs the named source
|
|
package, and does a prep, compile and install. In addition,
|
|
\fB--rebuild\fR builds a new binary package. When the build
|
|
has completed, the build directory is removed (as in
|
|
\fB--clean\fR) and the the sources and spec file for
|
|
the package are removed.
|
|
.SS "SHOWRC"
|
|
.PP
|
|
The command
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fBrpmbuild\fR \fB--showrc\fR
|
|
.PP
|
|
shows the values \fBrpmbuild\fR will use for all of the
|
|
options are currently set in
|
|
\fIrpmrc\fR and
|
|
\fImacros\fR
|
|
configuration file(s).
