# Script for Building tidy rpm packages
# To build the RPM packages for tidy on Redhat and other distros which support rpm.
# For making Debian packages, first create rpm package and then generate
# debian package by command "rpm2deb filename"
The steps are as follows:
1. Let's suppose TIDY_VERSION you are building is 02October2003
2. Unpack original source tree
tar zxvf tidy_src.tgz
This will extract to a directory called tidy
3. mv tidy tidy-02October2003
Edit the tidy.spec file inside directory tidy-02October2003
and make sure the Version variable is changed to 02October2003.
Also edit the Makefile and change prefix to "exactly" say this:
runinst_prefix=${RPMTMP}
devinst_prefix=${RPMTMP}
4. tar zcvf tidy-02October2003.tgz tidy-02October2003
5. rpmbuild -ta tidy-02October2003.tgz
6. rm tidy-02October2003.tgz
7. To derive Debian package for tidy run command on created rpm packages
rpm2deb tidy-02October2003-1.rpm
