Building gLExec from src rpm

THIS PAGE NEEDS UPDATING TO EMI-3/UMD-3

It is strongly advised to install, patch and rebuild the gLExec src rpm from https://software.nikhef.nl/dist/mwsec/rpm/ in case adaptations are needed

How to build gLExec from a .src.rpm

The now advised method of rebuilding gLExec from source RPM is using the Nikhef RPMs:

• You can use the following shell script, which can be downloaded here
• Adapt the variables at the top to point to right directories
• Run it in a temporary directory as ordinary user.
• The resulting binary RPM will be found in the RPMS/*/ subdirectory.
