Follow-up to my note below: Attached is a better spec file (cctbx_r2.spec) for building cctbx RPMs, where I've cleaned the build procedure by using cctbx_sources/libtbx/configure.py in a post-processing step, rather than the weird hack of building in the system-wide /usr/local space; see the ChangeLog and spec file for more. Many thanks to Ralf for helpful advice.

enjoy,

Hi all,

In case it's of interest, I've attached a spec file that works for building a cctbx RPM on Fedora 10 (nothing really F10-specific, so may work on other distros/releases too).

Please note that it works by playing the dangerous (and extremely ugly) game of moving the RPM build into the system-wide tree, so it builds "in situ" in /usr/local/cctbx instead of in the RPM default locale (/my/rpm/BUILDROOT/usr/local/cctbx). On the same note, the patch which is referenced in the spec file ('cctbx_bundle_StrucBio.patch') is just a small snippet that edits the head of 'cctbx_install_script.csh' to explicitly control the build path (i.e., override $cwd by explicitly setting something like 'set install_root="/usr/local/cctbx/2009_02_15_2320"', or wherever you'd like cctbx to live...). Probably a much cleaner procedure would be to use the libtbx/configure.py approach in a post-processing step; let me know if anyone pkg's an RPM that way. :-)

Enjoy,
Cam
