| Making a typical python package for Fedora or EL: Do you have a setup.py? No, then it's not going to be on PyPi anyway so ignore the rest of this since you'll need to figure out how to package this special snowflake. 0. Run `yum install -y rpmdevtools mock` 1. Run `rpmdev-newspec python-mypackage`. 2. Run `python setup.py sdist` 3. Modify the .spec as appropriate to add dependencies the package requires as well as set the version correctly. 4. Run `mock -r fedora-25-x86_64 --buildsprm python-mypackage.spec` 5. Run `mock -r fedora-25-x86_64 --rebuild python-mypackage.f25.src.rpm` Done, there's your RPM, debian packaging is roughly as simple (I'm less a fan because of how they try to fudge a Makefile into an adequate tool for package building, but hey, most everything can be built automatically by dh so the average makefile is ~3 lines). The biggest problem with learning this is simply finding the right documentation, Fedora has some pretty great guides for new packagers on the wiki. |
