## Instructions for building the official rpms.
|
|
##
|
|
The process used to create the official rpms is as follows:
|
|
|
|
You'll need to install libevent headers, usually located in package named
|
|
libevent-devel. Alternatively, you could download latest libevent from
|
|
http://libevent.org/ but that shouldn't be necessary.
|
|
|
|
Download and Extract the latest tor source code from
|
|
https://www.torproject.org/download
|
|
|
|
In the resulting directory:
|
|
LIBS=-lrt ./configure
|
|
make dist-rpm
|
|
|
|
You should have at least two, maybe three, rpms. There should be the binary
|
|
(i686|x86_64).rpm, a src.rpm, and on redhat/centos machines, a debuginfo.rpm.
|
|
The debuginfo rpms are created if package redhat-rpm-config is installed (case
|
|
of redhat distros).
|
|
|
|
This step suffices unless you want to create RPMs for distros other than the
|
|
one you used for building.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Instructions for building RPMs for multiple architectures or distributions
|
|
## using 'mock' on Fedora or RHEL (and clones)
|
|
|
|
Make sure you have mock installed and configured, see following HOWTOs for setup:
|
|
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_an_RPM_package
|
|
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Using_Mock_to_test_package_builds
|
|
|
|
Take the source RPM generated by previous step, and execute mock for every
|
|
target architecture (the names come from files in /etc/mock, strip the .cfg
|
|
extension in the -r parameter):
|
|
|
|
mock --rebuild -r fedora-17-x86_64 tor-X.Y.Z.src.rpm
|
|
|
|
Building for EL5 from newer distro (e.g. EL6 or Fedora 17) will fail due to bug
|
|
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=490613).
|
|
Here's a workaround:
|
|
|
|
Before even building the source RPM, install fedora-packager and instruct
|
|
the build system to use rpmbuild-md5 like this:
|
|
|
|
dnf install fedora-packager
|
|
export RPMBUILD=rpmbuild-md5
|
|
|
|
Then proceed as usual to create the source RPM and binary RPMs:
|
|
|
|
LIBS=-lrt ./configure
|
|
make dist-rpm
|
|
mock --rebuild -r epel-5-x86_64 tor-X.Y.Z.src.rpm
|
|
|
|
|
|
(Note: don't build under OpenVZ - it breaks unshare() syscall, which in turn
|
|
breaks mock. It could save you several hours.)
