## Instructions for building the official rpms.
##
These are instructions for building Tor binaries in the rpm format on
various cpu architectures and operating systems. Each rpm will require
glibc on the target system. It is believed that any rpm-based linux
distribution should have semi-current glibc installed by default.
If you run into a distribution that does not work with glibc, or does
not contain it, please let us know the details.
##
The process used to create the official rpms is as follows:
These are the exact steps used to build the official rpms of Tor.
Download and Extract the latest tor source code from https://www.torproject.org/.
In the resulting directory:
./configure
make dist-rpm
You should have at least two, maybe three, rpms. There should be the binary
i386.rpm, a src.rpm, and on redhat/centos machines, a debuginfo.rpm.
## Optional customization
##
If you wish to further tune Tor binaries in rpm format beyond this list,
see the GCC doc page for further options:

only "linux". If you wish to build rpms for a non-linux operating
system, you can replace "linux" with your operating system.
