Spins and other development issues

[Trever L. Adams]

I am wanting to develop some RPM packages that hopefully will eventually 
become part of Fedora. For the time being I would like to make them, 
publish them and possibly make Spins based on them.

I am wondering what build tools, spec file editing tools, and spin tools 
there are. I will be using git, which may or may not be an issue.

I am looking for tools that are automatic (like a build tree tool) and 
that will help do the process (spec and spin tools).

Thank you,
Trever Adams

Build Tree tool: pungi
Spin tool: mock

As for the spec files, well... you might want to write those
yourself. :)

spec templates can be created by some scripts from rpmdevtools.

There is also a
Eclipse Specfile Editor that use rpmdevtools to write 
specfile template using a wizard. The package should be available soon 
in rawhide. If you wan make a try now you can build the plugin from the 
fedora-cvs repo. The package name is eclipse-rpm-editor.

for spec files.

Almost anything does. But just because they havn't been mentioned yet,
(g)Vim does as well.

Thank you to all who have responded. I think pungi and mock are the ones 
I am most interested in.

Thank you,
