Re: [Ltib] ltib -m scbuild and the configure file

[Stuart Hughes]

Hi Peter,

PeterB is correct, just delete the configure line if your application
doesn't need one.  The template is there to show how common open-source
packages generally get built, but for simple apps you don't need this.
Take a look at dist/lfs-5.1/helloworld/helloworld.spec

Also don't initially worry about the vagaries of rpm, just either run
the steps as given in the faq: (e.g. ./ltib -p xxx -m scbuild ; ./ltib
-p xxx -m scdeploy).

Regards, Stuart
