Filezilla, Mock and Koji

So to catch everyone up from my last blog, I have fixed the errors that I had by adding the lines :

rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/share/locale/gr
%find_lang %{name}

and thanks to my teacher Chris Tyler for this info.

So my next step was doing the mock build using the command "mock -r fedora-11-i386 --rebuild filezilla-3.0.3-1.fc11.src.rpm" and that went fine with no errors at all.

So just a few minutes ago I installed all the necessary stuff required for koji use by following the Fedora Koji Guide. This was a very easy and painless procedure. The next step was to try and do the koji build and to find how to do this I used fellow class mate Boris' blog where I got the command "koji build --scratch dist-f10 filezilla-3.0.3-1.fc11.src.rpm". When I ran that it went and did its thing, then and about five minutes later it was all successful. :)

Here are the links to my complete koji build and source rpm:

P.S. While searching around on the Koji site I saw that Jesse Keating previously packaged filezilla. I just thought that was something cool to share with the class.

Till next time, Goodbye!
