Thanks! I tried to mimic batti, but not much help.
However, your suggestions really helped me and I was able to modify the spec file (was missing the python2-sitelib part) and can make a rpm. Here is the spec file:
$ fpaste pdfstapler.spec
Uploading (2.4KiB)...
http://ur1.ca/jqgcf -> http://paste.fedoraproject.org/185742/15606142
Not completely sure if this is correct. So it would be great if someone could verify to its correctness.
But I still had some other questions.
Specifically, how do I get the version number in the name of the rpm. Right now, it is stapler-master simply because the master is used in the source file?
Also, the binary is called stapler. However, there is already a stapler binary (as part of a totally different package for URL applications). Is there a way to name this automagically? (The package and the binary that I am packaging are called stapler - I guess I was thinking of renaming them to pdfstapler to avold confusion.)
Many thanks again and best wishes,
Ranjan
