You had to know it was coming...
How can I take a Lazarus application and create a makefile, etc. so that
I can make RPM packages with it?
Anybody point me in the right direction?
I know very little about RPM creation, and from what I've been reading
it looks like the RPM software must be able to compile and install using
your makefile...
Or perhaps we can just skip the whole makefile thingy and someone can
tell me a better way to turn a Lazarus built app into a package in
Linux?
You don't need a Makefile to build a RPM package. The building part of the spec file is just a shell script. So you can insert also everything manual.
But mostly it is preferred to have a Makefile that does the job for compiling and installing files. The RPM package will then only call the Makefile.
