Building Packages with OpenPKG
OpenPKG uses a version of RPM modified to work entirely within a package's directory structure. There are some changes in the way RPMs are built, some the result of encouraging non-root users to build the RPMs, others in the way the RPM sources, builds, and packages are handled in the file system.
Changes in RPM
There have been several changes to the ``rpm'' program:
Build by non-root users.
More rational directory structure.
Cleaner formatting of specfiles.
Utility macros for common functions such as file editing and building a list of files installed.
Encourages building packages with user specified options.
An add-on perl script that rebuilds multiple packages based on dependencies and user defined options.
Packages are built by non-root users, limiting the amount of damage done by bad specfiles.
More rational directory structure -- instead of the SOURCES, SPECS, BUILD, RPMS, and SRPMS directories found under the standard RPM directory, OpenPKG's RPMs are all built under the %{l_prefix}/RPM/{PKG,SRC,TMP} directories. The RPM database is under the %{l_prefix}/RPM/DB directory instead of someplace under /var/lib.
Each package's sources, patches and spec files are in one directory, %{l_prefix}/RPM/SRC/%{name} instead of being split between the SOURCES and SPECS directories as done with standard RPM. I find this much easier to use than having spec files and sources in different directories.
The BUILD directory is replaced by the %{l_prefix}/RPM/TMP directory, and by convention the BUILD_ROOT directory is the same as the build directory with a ``-root'' suffix. This convention makes it easy to look at the installed files using $PWD-root when in the build directory.
A second advantage to using the %{l_prefix}/RPM/TMP directory is that this can be easily symlinked to a directory on a UFS file system when running on Apple's OS\ X OS where the default file system is case insensitive.
The specfile handling has been cleaned up so that macros such as %setup and %patch may be indented from the left margin. This permits indentation of all the major specfile sections for easier reading.
The specfiles can contain options which control the build process making it far easier to build complex programs such as ``apache''.
One of the most important features of the OpenPKG system is the ``openpkg'' script that is used to build and maintain OpenPKG instances. This works in conjunction with the user's ~/.openpkg/build file which contains the location of the SRPMS, and various build options to generate scripts to rebuild and install all packages necessary to one or more packages.
``openpkg build -Ua > /tmp/build.all'' creates a script that will rebuild all packages that are installed on the system, and out of date compared to the archive.
``openpkg build apache > /tmp/build.apache'' creates a script that will build apache and any other packages that apache needs based on the options selected in the ~/.openpkg/build file.

Building RPMS
RPM works on the principle of building software packages from pristine sources, applying patches as necessary, compiling, and building binary and source RPM files under the control of a single specification file. The spec file controls package building, creation of binary files for installation and source, and anything necessary when the package is installed, updated, or removed. Here is an example of the gcc.spec file used for the OpenPKG build of gcc. It is fairly complex, and has good examples of many of the features of rpm.
