Building RPM distribution packages

If you would like to distribute your configuration and build of Berkeley DB as an RPM software package, first configure Berkeley DB using the --with-rpm configuration option, and then build Berkeley DB as follows:

../dist/configure --with-rpm=ARCHIVE
make

where "ARCHIVE" is the path to the Berkeley DB archive, for example:

../dist/configure --with-rpm=/usr/downloads/db-4.2.52.tar.gz
make
