I have been actually using the rpm plugin, found a few bugs in it etc... The problem is, when you install C++ projects, you want some .h files to be copied to /usr/include, some .so files to /usr/lib etc. so it cannot work as easily as for Java projects. I'm guessing it's easy for Perl as well, since you've got packages...

you can try playing with the rpm plugin from mojo:

i'm actually in the same boat as you are.

we've been programming in perl till now, using rpm & yum for deployment.

but from what i learned so far about Maven, you might find that it can
replace
any functionality you got from rpm/yum, thus rendering the use of rpm
packaging redundant.

Hello,

We would like to use RPMs similarly to JARs. This means that, when we
install a project, its rpm would go into the repository. When another
project is using this project, then the rpm should be fetched from the
repository and installed. Is there a good way to do this?

The problem might also be that we need to install the rpms in su mode,
though this can be solved for now by running "sudo mvn"

All ideas are welcome!

Thanks, Csaba
