Research fedora packaging and repository management #6

Open markpash opened 1 year ago

markpash commented 1 year ago

We need to deliver binaries to fedora users, but how? How does packaging for fedora work? How can we run our own repo for fedora?

Hey. I can help you to build your rpm files. But there are two things. First I have no spare time to maintain them so then I can help you build and maintain your pkgs. And second, there are tons of pkgs you want to keep up to date. If you want me to build them for you, just name them as your priority. Because as I said they are large amount of pkgs

@hoshython Hi! That's great, I ask because I have very little time to explore and learn about all the specifics of packaging for fedora, I'd much rather someone else explain the best way to proceed given the goals of this project.

The burden of responsibility of maintenance will fall on me, so I will try to take care of it and automate it as much as I can. All I need help with is guidance for strategy to build a fedora package repository, how users add custom repositories to their system, and how rpms can be built with pre-supplied binaries.

I've somewhat explained how it would work in the archlinux issue.
