Mess like "wrong" or mess like "sloppy"?
I'd like a copy of the new revision. (You should really start rsyncing your
stuff to your trilug page.) I haven't had a chance to read your doc, but
I've just spent the last couple of months wrestling with making RPMs. I
wrote a ~2300 word step-by-step guide for creating RPMs. I thought that I'd
read yours and see whether we could combine them. I'd really love it if Red
Hat adopted such a guide and included it with their rpm documentation.
_Maximum_RPM_ was good, but I think that RPM really needs a step-by-step
guide for someone who is already somewhat familiar with .spec files and who
knows where to look for details such as all of the switches to each command.
