1 Building a FlightGear RPM package for openSUSE
3 (Last tested with openSUSE 11.4+12.1)
5 This directory contains the files which, along with
6 the source code tar files, can be used to build
7 an RPM package targeted at an openSUSE Linux system.
9 To build FlightGear from source do the following:
11 1. obtain flightgear-2.8.0.tar.bz2 (adapt version if
12 necessary) and copy it into ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES
14 2. copy FlightGear.desktop to ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES
16 3. obtain (or build) and install SimGear (exact
17 match with FlightGear's version required).
19 4. look in the BuildRequires section of FlightGear.spec
20 and check that all the packages referred to are
21 installed (note, some of these packages may be part
22 of openSUSE's "games" repository).
24 5. run 'rpmbuild -ba FlightGear.spec' and find the RPM
25 build result in ~/rpmbuild/RPMS
