Emergency UNIX and Linux Support

Thanks I will do that. But actually I want to know what I have to do next. My requirement is:

an srpm containing libcurl
an rpm built from the corresponding srpm
developmental rpm from the same srpm for build purposes (developmental rpm has include headers and or .a's)
the package should be self contained. (should not download sources when you are rebuilding the rpm)

I have downloaded curl-devel-7.19.4.pp.i386.rpm from Index of /download. I would approach admin to deploy the same.

The package needs to default get install location /opt/pp and build using openssl @ /opt/pp for 32 bit arch.

I am quiet unsure how to configure those values and what is openssl.

Please help

OK, first of all, you need the curl-7.19.4-1.src.rpm as that's the one containing the sources. The one you downloaded contains the already compiled version.

Second, before you start breaking systems with malformed packages, get comfortable with the build-process of the software first. Get a feel for the various configure switches, the build process itself, ...
Then, and only then, apply that knowledge to the spec file for rpmbuild.

OR you can use the source RPM from CentOS (linky), a 100% RHEL compatible distribution.
