I've started creating RPMs of software that I use, to allow me to be able to deploy it configured exactly how I want. However I can't figure out how to rename the package without also renaming the tarball that RPM builds it from.
For example I have the source of PHP5.6 in a tarball php-5.6.0RC3.tar.gz. During the RPM build process this gets extracted to the directory php-5.6.0RC3 and the build process cd's into that directory to make it.
I want to change the package name to phpcustom, and still have it built from php-5.6.0RC3.tar.gz. The extract process works, but then the build process tries to cd into the directory phpcustom-5.6.0RC3
which obviously doesn't exist, and so it breaks.
How do I tell the rpmbuild which directory the build should take place in?
I guess I could just move the php-5.6.0RC3
directory to be phpcustom-5.6.0RC3
...but it seems a bit silly.
I've put my spec file below, just in case it is relevant.
%define __spec_install_post %{nil}
%define debug_package %{nil}
%define __os_install_post %{_dbpath}/brp-compress
