[HACKERS] [pgrpm-HACKERS]SPEC file for PostgreSQL

I am trying to do a custom build (and generate binary and source RPM) package for PostgreSQL.

I am using attached SPEC file. But I am not able to get binary rpm. rpmbuild always gives me source
rpm only. Is there anything wrong with my spec file?

It is incomplete.

There should be a %prep, %build, %install and %files section at least.

Towards end of the process I get below messages:

Checking for unpackaged file(s): /usr/lib/rpm/check-files
/root/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/PostgreSQL-9.3-1.x86_64
Wrote: /root/rpmbuild/SRPMS/PostgreSQL-9.3-1.src.rpm

+ umask 022
+ cd /root/rpmbuild/BUILD
+ /bin/rm -rf /root/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/PostgreSQL-9.3-1.x86_64
+ exit 0

The file I am using is very basic (since I am just starting with the process). Does community maintain
an rpm SPEC file for PostgreSQL? Can I get access to it?

Start looking here:
http://yum.postgresql.org/srpms/9.3/redhat/rhel-6-x86_64/repoview/postgresql93.html

The source RPMs contain the spec file.

Also, http://svn.pgrpms.org/browser/rpm/redhat/9.3/postgresql/ is the
SVN repo for 9.3 spec files and patches.

After a quick glance at your spec, I am not seing any %files section.

Yes, here:
http://svn.pgrpms.org/repo/rpm/redhat/

Can I get access to it?

Use for example this command to create a git repository of that:
git svn clone http://svn.pgrpms.org/repo/rpm/redhat
Or a simple svn command...

If I were you, I'd simply take the community spec and modify it for my
needs, it is already really complete and contains automatic management of
for example translation files, smth that is always a pain to maintain
manually.

I thought %files is non-mandatory.

Thanks! this will help

Thanks everyone for helping.

I agree and that is why I asked for it :)
