I'm not sure you have a clear idea what RPM does. It's a package managing system, not so different from deb in Debian or the ports collections in the BSDs, or tardist in the case of IRIX. If you're really interested in building RPMs, subscribe to the rpm-list: http://www.redhat.com/mailing-lists/rpm-list/index.html You can also obtain more information here (the last one may be especially useful to you, since you seem to be interested in using RPM in a non-Linux UNIX environment): http://www.rpm.org/ http://www.linux.ncsu.edu/lug/lectures/rpm-pres/ http://www.redhat.com/docs/books/ http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/RPM-HOWTO/index.html http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/RPM-for-Unix-HOWTO.html CVS and RPM are two totally different things. The first allows you to manage source code: versions, multiple check-ins, roll backs, etc. The second allows you to build a package that you can easily install and upgrade on a RPM based system. Not sure what you mean by "a hook" between them. Their goal is completely different. -- ------------------------------------------------------ Nitebirdz ------------------------------------------------------ http://www.linuxnovice.org News, tips, articles, links... *** XFS for Linux: http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs *** *** http://www.mozilla.org *** _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
