Building RPM Packages From Source

Explains how to generate RPM packages from the MariaDB source code using CMake with the `-DRPM` flag.

To generate RPM packages from the build, supply the -DRPM=xxx flag to CMake, where the value xxx is the name of the distribution you're building for. For example, centos7 or rocky8 or fedora39 or sles15.

What these do are controlled in the following CMake files:

• cmake/cpack_rpm.cmake

• cmake/build_configurations/mysql_release.cmake

• cmake/mariadb_connector_c.cmake

To build the packages you should execute:

$ umask 0022
$ cmake --build . --target package
