# Building an RPM package
For RPM-based distributions (like Fedora, CentOS, RHEL), you can build the package from source using the provided `.spec` file.
1. **Install Build Tools & Dependencies**
First, install the necessary build dependencies for `kew` by following the instructions for your distribution (e.g., Fedora) in the "Building the project manually" section.
Then, install the RPM build tools:
```bash
sudo dnf install rpm-build
```
2. **Prepare Source Tarball**
Create the source tarball from the git repository and place it where `rpmbuild` can find it:
```bash
# Define the version based on the spec file
VERSION=$(grep 'Version:' kew.spec | awk '{print $2}')
# Create the rpmbuild directory structure
mkdir -p ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES
# Create the source tarball
git archive --format=tar.gz --prefix=kew-$VERSION/ -o ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/kew-$VERSION.tar.gz HEAD
```
3. **Build the RPM**
Now, you can build the binary and source RPMs:
```bash
rpmbuild -ba kew.spec
```
The resulting RPM files will be created in the `~/rpmbuild/RPMS/` and `~/rpmbuild/SRPMS/` directories.
