Why do MariaDB RPMs not include the source RPM (SRPMS)?
You are viewing an old version of this article. View

We build MariaDB RPMs using CMake CPack Package Generators in the buildsystem. This system is called CPackRPM.
CPackRPM takes short-cuts in generating a binary RPM thus not requiring you to do %prep, %build, and %install. A good explanation on this is provided by Eric Noulard on the cmake list.
We are currently investigating using a source RPM generator as documented via a macro.
