- ## Instructions for building the official rpms.
- ##
- The process used to create the official rpms is as follows:
- You'll need to install libevent headers, usually located in package named
- libevent-devel. Alternatively, you could download latest libevent from
- https://libevent.org/ but that shouldn't be necessary.
- Download and Extract the latest tor source code from
- https://www.torproject.org/download
- In the resulting directory:
- LIBS=-lrt ./configure
- make dist-rpm
- You should have at least two, maybe three, rpms. There should be the binary
- (i686|x86_64).rpm, a src.rpm, and on redhat/centos machines, a debuginfo.rpm.
- The debuginfo rpms are created if package redhat-rpm-config is installed (case
- of redhat distros).
- This step suffices unless you want to create RPMs for distros other than the
- one you used for building.
- ## Instructions for building RPMs for multiple architectures or distributions
- ## using 'mock' on Fedora or RHEL (and clones)
- Make sure you have mock installed and configured, see following HOWTOs for setup:
- https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_an_RPM_package
- https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Using_Mock_to_test_package_builds
- Take the source RPM generated by previous step, and execute mock for every
- target architecture (the names come from files in /etc/mock, strip the .cfg
- extension in the -r parameter):
- mock --rebuild -r fedora-17-x86_64 tor-X.Y.Z.src.rpm
- Building for EL5 from newer distro (e.g. EL6 or Fedora 17) will fail due to bug
- (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=490613).
- Here's a workaround:
- Before even building the source RPM, install fedora-packager and instruct
- the build system to use rpmbuild-md5 like this:
- dnf install fedora-packager
- export RPMBUILD=rpmbuild-md5
- Then proceed as usual to create the source RPM and binary RPMs:
- LIBS=-lrt ./configure
- make dist-rpm
- mock --rebuild -r epel-5-x86_64 tor-X.Y.Z.src.rpm
- (Note: don't build under OpenVZ - it breaks unshare() syscall, which in turn
- breaks mock. It could save you several hours.)
