- 1. As root, copy the spec file into /usr/src/redhat/SPECS
+The file scripts/gnupg.spec is used to build a RPM package (both
+binary and src):
+ 1. copy the spec file into /usr/src/redhat/SPECS
2. copy the tar file into /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
- 3. type: rpm -ba SPECS/gnupg-x.x.x.spec
+ 3. type: rpm -ba SPECS/gnupg.spec
+Or use the -t (--tarbuild) option of rpm:
+ 1. rpm -ta gnupg-x.x.x.tar.gz
+
+The binary rpm file can now be found in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS, source
+rpm in /usr/src/redhat/SRPMS
+
+Please note that to install gnupg binary rpm you must be root, as
+gnupg needs to be suid root, at least on Linux machines
