build community RPM packages for other distributions from git in an easy way #1218

Closed xsnrg closed 4 years ago

xsnrg commented 4 years ago

Problem: As a user of a non-debian based system, I would like to easily manage and update installs of indi-3rd party drivers on my systems. My distribution does not provide an option for nightly builds, and this is a desirable outcome.

Outcome: I would like for the community to have a way to enjoy nightly builds and debugging on distributions other than debian based. My own person usage is for Fedora, but this should also encompass RHEL, CentOS, and SUSE if possible

Alternatives: I have spent a great deal of time looking at build engines, packaging methods, including AppImage, considering copying what Christian had done before me, and have settled on the Fedora Copr system

It would be desirable to simply be able to add the indi-bleeding repo and use system based tools such as yum, dnf, rpm, etc to do package management of installed versions.
