  1. ## Instructions for building the official rpms.
  2. ##
  3. The process used to create the official rpms is as follows:
  4. Download latest stable libevent from
  5. http://www.monkey.org/~provos/libevent/
  6. The first step of compiling libevent is to configure it as follows:
  7. ./configure --enable-static --disable-shared
  8. Complete the "make" and "make install". You will need to be root,
  9. or sudo -s, to complete the "make install".
  10. Check for a successful universal binary of libevent.a in, by default,
  11. /usr/local/lib by using the following command:
  12. "file /usr/local/lib/libevent.a"
  13. Download and Extract the latest tor source code from
  14. https://www.torproject.org/download
  15. In the resulting directory:
  16. LIBS=-lrt ./configure
  17. make dist-rpm
  18. You should have at least two, maybe three, rpms. There should be the binary
  19. i386.rpm, a src.rpm, and on redhat/centos machines, a debuginfo.rpm.
