RPMBuild

Building the RPM from the source tar.gz (lshell >= 0.9.7)

This part is applicable as of lshell version 0.9.7.

In order to build your RPM using the source tar.gz:

$ wget https://github.com/ghantoos/lshell/archive/X.Y.Z.tar.gz
$ sudo rpmbuild -tb lshell-X.Y.Z.tar.gz

The generated RPM would then be found here:

/usr/src/redhat/RPMS/noarch/lshell-X.Y.Z-1.noarch.rpm

Thank you Michael Mansour for this excellent tip!

Building the RPM using the SPEC file (lshell < 0.9.7)

This part is deprecated as of lshell version 0.9.7.

Here are the steps you need to follow in order to create your own lshell RPM:

• download lshell's source file (i.e lshell-X.Y.Z.tar.gz) and save it in

/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/lshell-X.Y.Z.tar.gz

• Download and save the SPEC file (replace "X.Y.Z" with your version number):

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ghantoos/lshell/master/rpm/lshell.spec

• Create your rpm using the following command (as root):

rpmbuild -bb lshell.spec

• You should find your new RPM in:

/usr/src/redhat/RPMS/noarch/lshell-X.Y.Z-1.noarch.rpm
