- ## Instructions for building the official rpms.
- ##
- The process used to create the official rpms is as follows:
- Download latest stable libevent from
- http://libevent.org/
- The first step of compiling libevent is to configure it as follows:
- ./configure --enable-static --disable-shared
- Complete the "make" and "make install". You will need to be root,
- or sudo -s, to complete the "make install".
- Check for a successful universal binary of libevent.a in, by default,
- /usr/local/lib by using the following command:
- "file /usr/local/lib/libevent.a"
- 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
- i386.rpm, a src.rpm, and on redhat/centos machines, a debuginfo.rpm.
- ## Instructions for building RPMs for multiple architectures or distributions
- ## using 'mock'
- 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
- (Note: don't build under OpenVZ - it breaks unshare() syscall, which in turn
- breaks mock. It could save you several hours.)
