Hello,

I am trying to build an RPM for sylfilter available at
http://sylpheed.sraoss.jp/sylfilter/src/sylfilter-%{?version}.tar.gz
Not sure what the issue is, but wondering if anyone had any suggestions?

Many thanks and best wishes,
Ranjan

So, the Fedora repo appears to have disappeared. Anyone know if there is a repo 
containing sylfilter? Or should I go back to building an rpm from scratch?

Many thanks and best wishes,
Ranjan

I suggest you build the source as follows (assuming you downloaded the source):

sudo yum-builddep -y sylfilter-0.8-1pclos2013.src.rpm

now as non-root:

rpm -ivh sylfilter-0.8-1pclos2013.src.rpm
cd { to the SPECS directory }. I assume it will be somewhere in your home dir.

You might want to edit the stylfilter.spec file so that the newly built rpm will be
named after your fedora dist release number. Not crucial.

rpmbuild -vvv -bb sylfilter.spec 2>&1 | tee sylfilter.build.out

When it finishes (successfully), it will say what it Wrote (will give full pathname)

If successfull, then

yum localinstall full-path-name-to-the-newly-built-stylfilter.......rpm

Good luck.
