I have been unable to find a current release rpm for gtk2 for SuSE9.2, so I am thinking of creating one on my own using a source tarball and checkinstall. Normally, when I have created an rpm using source and checkinstall, I end up with a single package of the form - gtk2-2.6.5.i386.rpm. If I only install this rpm, there are corresponding gtk2-devel dependencies, that are not satisfied.

So my question - how can I create 2 rpms from a source tarball, a 'regular' and 'devel'?
