For RPM, it is assumed that the following subdirectories
are under a root directory such as /usr/src/redhat
:
BUILD RPMS SOURCES SPECS SRPMS
For the purposes of this document, the RPM SOURCES
directory
is the directory into which all tool source and patches are
assumed to reside. The BUILD
directory is where the actual
build is performed when building binaries from a source RPM.
The SOURCES
and BUILD
are logically equivalent to
the archive
and tools
directory discussed in the
next section.
