Hello,

I'm interested in becoming a packager, but I'm pretty new to building RPMs.

How do I set up to become a rpmforge packager? I've rebuilt a few rpms
from src.rpms using rpmbuild but that's about it-- I want to
transition away from using scripts to install things from source
towards building custom RPMs and this seems like a good way to go.

I noticed that the packager's info page is pretty minimal.... any tips
on how to get started? I'm looking at the archives now...

thanks
jrobinson
