RPM Packaging & Contributing to Fedora Packager Team
Package Management is one of the most important component in a
distribution. Adding packages, ensuring library dependencies are met,
ensuring applications are removed cleanly are some of the core
features of package management.

Creating packages are tasks of packagers. Some people might think
creating packages is rocket science, whereas its not. If you know how
to use the command line to install applications from source, you just
need to add a bit more stuff, and you can package the application.

I will briefly go through the process of creating a simple RPM package
for you to get started in RPM packaging, and also how you can get
involved in Fedora Project as a packager.

About the Speaker:
Izhar Firdaus have been contributing in Fedora Project as Ambassador
since 2007. He also contributes to the Fedora Packager group by
maintaining several packages in the Fedora repositories.
