142 This is an auxiliary tool to the RedHat Package Manager (\s-1RPM\s0). It |
|
143 provides additional functionality for use in \s-1RPM\s0 \fIspec\fR files while |
|
144 building packages. The following \fIcommand\fRs are available: |
|
145 .IP "\fBplatform\fR" 4 |
|
146 .IX Item "platform" |
|
147 This command outputs a unique platform id in the format |
|
148 \&\*(L"<architecture>\-<system><release>\*(R". For instance, the output on a |
|
149 FreeBSD platform can be \*(L"i386\-freebsd4.2\*(R", the output on a Linux |
|
150 platform can be \*(L"i686\-linux2.2.16\*(R", the output on a Solaris platform can |

151 be \*(L"sun4u\-sunos5.8\*(R", etc. |

165 use with the program \fItool\fR. It provides only standard flags which |
|
166 always can be used. In conjunction with \fB\-O\fR (optimization), it also provides |

167 reasonable job control for use on multi-processor platforms (for instance it |
|
168 outputs \*(L"\-j4\*(R" on an \s-1SMP\s0 system with 2 CPUs if \s-1GNU\s0 make or \s-1BSD\s0 pmake is used). |

216 .IX Item "files [-v] [-o outfile] [-r build-root] [entry ...]" |
|
217 This is a dynamic variant of the \s-1RPM\s0 \f(CW%files\fR section, i.e., it |
|
218 dynamically creates the contents of the \f(CW%files\fR section for use with |
|
219 the \f(CW\*(C`%files \-f\*(C'\fR command. For this the file list entries are read from |
|
220 the command line (or from stdin if no arguments are given or a single |
|
221 argument \f(CW\*(C`\-\*(C'\fR is given) and written to stdout (if no \fB\-o\fR option is |
|
222 given or its \fIoutfile\fR argument is \f(CW\*(C`\-\*(C'\fR) or to \fIoutfile\fR. |
|
223 .Sp |
|
224 The trick of this approach is to be able to use additional features in |
|
225 the file list which \s-1RPM\s0 does not provide. The following features are |
|
226 provided: |
|
227 .RS 4 |
|
228 .IP "\fBTrailing Tags\fR" 4 |
|
229 .IX Item "Trailing Tags" |
|
230 \&\s-1RPM\s0 requires that all tags (like \f(CW\*(C`%attr(...)\*(C'\fR or \f(CW%dir\fR) preceed the |
|
231 path in a file list entry. This sometimes leads to ugly and unreadable |
|
232 file lists, because all paths cannot be left\-aligned. With \fIrpmtool\fR\|(8) |
|
233 tags in the input file list can be at leading and trailing positions. |
|
234 The output file list will nevertheless have all tags in leading |
|
235 positions for \s-1RPM\s0. |
|
236 .IP "\fBSyntactical Set Pattern\fR" 4 |
|
237 .IX Item "Syntactical Set Pattern" |
|
238 \&\s-1RPM\s0 supports simple wildcard patterns like \f(CW\*(C`/path/*\*(C'\fR or \f(CW\*(C`/path/[a\-z]\*(C'\fR, |
|
239 etc. Sometimes it is convenient, to also have (in addition to character |
|
240 sets) string sets like \f(CW\*(C`/path/{foo,bar,quux}\*(C'\fR. \fIrpmtool\fR\|(8) provides this |
|
241 by syntactically (without checking the filesystem) expanding those |
|
242 string sets. |
|
243 .IP "\fBOverriding Entries\fR" 4 |
|
244 .IX Item "Overriding Entries" |
|
245 This is the most important feature and the reason why \fIshtool\fR\|(1)'s |
|
246 \&\fBfiles\fR command was implemented. Although \s-1RPM\s0 allows one to specify a |
|
247 directory in a file list and then implicitly expands this recursively |
|
248 into its contents, it unfortunately does not allow one to later |
|
249 explcitly override particular entries (usually if an individual |
|
250 \&\f(CW\*(C`%attr(...)\*(C'\fR tag is required). \fIrpmtool\fR\|(8) now supports overriding |
|
251 entries, i.e., if a path occurs multiple times, only the last occurance |
|
252 is kept. |
|
253 .IP "\fBNegation Tag\fR" 4 |
|
254 .IX Item "Negation Tag" |
|
255 This provides an additional tag \f(CW%not\fR which can be used to explicitly |
|
256 exclude a previously implicitly added entry. |
