If you have KDE on your system, you can also use krpmbuilder to help you create a .spec file. Also, if you plan on distributing your rpm files, it is nice if you sign them with your GPG key (the "--sign" option to rpmbuild, or --resign to rpm if you're signing after the build), because then people can check that the rpm hasn't been modified (which some tools like red-carpet, etc will check automatically). Then it is also useful to have your key signed by other people -- which means go to a key signing event! :-)<BR>
