what is the difference b/w making an rpm with a specfile (specification
file) and doing it manually.The reason i asked the question is this that i
have been trying to generate the rpms through the spec file and not doing
it manually as i didnt knew that it could be done manually after reading
the how to articles i am thinking that i ve been stupid trying to generate
rpm through spec file is that really so?
Cor. Please give a link to the howto that tells you how to build an rpm
without a spec file, I'm curious.
