Centpkg

Centpkg is a wrapper for rpkg which interacts with RPM git repositories like the ones hosted at http://git.centos.org. Rpkg also provides some convenience methods/commands for local builds via mock or rpmbuild, for interacting with koji, and for generating patches.

Centpkg is in pre-alpha state, as of now this is a proof of concept.

For now only a very small subset of rpkg commands are enabled.

Installing

Centpkg currently requires the EPEL repository for pyrpkg and other dependencies.

root# <Install and configure EPEL-Release>
root# yum install pyrpkg
root# git clone https://bitbucket.org/bstinsonmhk/centpkg.git
root# cd centpkg
root# python setup.py install
