RE: Making SRPMS or RPMS

["Fox, Kevin M" <KMFox mail bhi-erc com>]

To make a rpm from a tar ball, type rpm -ta tarball.tar.gz
To make a rpm from a srpm, type rpm -rebuild rpmname.src.rpm

Note, there is a guy out there that has been working on creating updated
rpms.
You can get them from:

		As RH Labs are pretty slow for updating RPMS, I'd like to
make RPMS my
		self. I can rebuild SRPMS into RPMS w/o trouble, but I'd
like someone to
		tell me how simply make a SRPMS with a tar.gz ?
