			Red Hat is strict about the software with "restricted" licenses that it will distribute, which means additional packages often need to be installed to enable features that "just work" in other distributions. Most of these are supplied by [https://rpmfusion.org/ RPM Fusion].

Created with some packaging notes and sources.

New page

Personal notes on the use of Red Hat's Linux distributions and their derivatives (RHEL, Fedora, CentOS, Alma, etc.).

=Package Development=

Preparing a development environment, getting upstream sources to modify, and building.

==Environment preparation==

===Install development tools===

Red Hat's term for the usual...

{{code|inline=y|lang=bash|dnf groupinstall "Development Tools" "Development Libraries"}}

...and the RPM tools.

{{code|inline=y|lang=bash|dnf install -y rpmdevtools rpmlint}}

===Initialize an RPM build environment===

Creates the diretory tree under ~/rpmbuild.

{{code|inline=y|lang=bash|rpmdev-setuptree}}

===Install a package's build dependencies===

{{code|inline=y|lang=bash|dnf builddep $PACKAGE}}

==Retrieving upstream sources==

===Using the package manager===

dnf can fetch SRPMs from the repository.

{{code|inline=y|lang=bash|dnf download --source $PACKAGE}}

Extracting the SRPMs will give you a SPEC, a source tarball, and any distribution patches.

{{code|inline=y|lang=bash|rpm2cpio $PACKAGE.src.rpm {{!}} cpio -idmv}}

===Using git===

Individual git repositories for packages are accessible from [https://src.fedoraproject.org/ Fedora Package Sources].
