Here is what to do to make a binary rpm using the spec file lyx.spec.
|
||
|
The description below apply only to the Intel platform, but only minor
|
||
|
changes should be needed for other platforms.
|
||
|
|
||
|
1) Install xforms-88 or later. You can find an xforms-0.88 rpm
|
||
|
at
|
||
|
|
||
|
ftp://moni.msci.memphis.edu/pub
|
||
|
|
||
|
2) Install LaTeX. You can do this using rpms (you need tetex-xdvi,
|
||
|
tetex, tetex-latex) from your RH distribution.
|
||
|
|
||
|
3) Copy lyx.spec to /usr/src/redhat/SPECS
|
||
|
|
||
|
4) Copy lyx-1.0.0.tar.gz to /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
|
||
|
|
||
|
5) Issue the command
|
||
|
|
||
|
rpm -bb /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/lyx.spec
|
||
|
|
||
|
This builds the binary rpm, and puts it in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386.
|
||
|
Note that building lyx requires about 35M free space on your disk.
|
||
|
|
||
|
6) Now install the package:
|
||
|
|
||
|
rpm -Uvh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/lyx-1.0.0-1.i386.rpm
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you get dependency errors about xforms or tetex, then you need to
|
||
|
use the --nodeps option (because you installed xforms or tetex not in
|
||
|
rpm form):
|
||
|
|
||
|
rpm -Uvh --nodeps /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/lyx-1.0.0-1.i386.rpm
|
||
|
|
||
|
You should not get any more errors.
