How do I build rpm files. Help !!

[lad24mx]

I finally managed to install Licq in my SuSE7 box and I was thinking it'll be cool if I could package the proggy into an rpm file, unfortunately I don't know how to do it.

Can you guys help?

Thanks.

To build *.rpm you need a source tarball and *.spec file which defines how the rpm is going to be build...when you ready you'd issue rpm -ba <name of program>.spec which would do all the work and create a .src.rpm and .rpm packages ready to install.Check the rpm guide at www.rpm.org (http://www.rpm.org) for details.Hope this helps.
