Modify or update existing rpm contrib
« on: June 27, 2012, 05:15:23 PM »
I wonder if anyone could help explain how to update and existing rpm ?

I was messing about with smeserver-wbl which hasn't been touched for a while and noted that there were a few issues.

I would like to have a play and see if could modify it slightly and cure a few problems as it is a handy contrib.

As it is just code/templates rather than binary stuff it should be a bit easier   :?

I have had a read here :

http://wiki.contribs.org/SME_Server:Documentation:Developers_Manual#III._How_to_create_an_SME_Server_package_-_step_by_step

But there are notes to stay things may be out of date. What exactly ?

Next is how do I get the 'source' for the original RPM ? Or will I have to build things like a new spec file ??

Any help gratefully appreciated !

1. Read the Manual
2. Read the Wiki
3. Don't ask for support on Unsupported versions of software
4. I have a job, wife, and kids and do this in my spare time. If you want something fixed, please help.

I think the current source is here:
http://smecontribs.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/smecontribs/rpms/smeserver-wbl/

And from what I see here:
http://bugs.contribs.org/describecomponents.cgi?product=SME%20Contribs

The "default assignee" is darrel may, and the "default qa contact" is the sme server contrib team.

Thanks. Not used CVS before but will try and have a look.
