pkgbuild-0.1
=============
UPDATED 5-5-2000

	pkgbuild is a graphical development environment for RedHat's RPM. It is
	designed to allow easy building and testing of RPM SPEC files.  This is 
	in the hope that more people will build and distribute quality RPMs.  
	If your new to RPM it is important to note, you don't have to write an
   	application to package it.  You can package and redistribute any free
   	software.	
    
NOTE
	Please read the NOTSUPPORTED and TODO files to view the tags and 
	functions not supported in pkgbuild.  This is IMPORTANT!  If you load 
	a SPEC file that contains tags pkgbuild does not understand it will 
	ignore them.  If you then save over the original those tags will no 
	longer be in the SPEC file.  
	
INSTALLATION

  pkgbuild requires the FOX (GPL) class library to compile. you can get the 
  FOX library at ftp://cyberia.cfdrc.com/pub/.  I have also included 
  the binary file in case you'd like to just start using it.

  To build and install pkgbuild, follow these steps:

    1. Unpack the pkgbuild package.

    2. If necessary, edit the Makefile so that it fits your system.

    3. Type "make" to build the binary.

    4. Copy pkgbuild to your favorite binary directory such as 
		/usr/local/bin

	5. You may need this:
		cd /usr/lib 
        ln -s rpm/rpmrc ./rpmrc 
        ln -s rpm/rpmpopt ./rpmpopt

	6. You may also want to make sure your running the latest version of 
		rpm;

	7. Copy the .groups and .newspec.spec files to you $HOME directory.
