An overview of the Debian and RPM source package formats
This is a brief and jaundiced overview of the format of Debian and RPMsource packages, what the Debian and RPM package systems theoreticallyuse to generate the compiled binary packages that people actuallyinstall. As usual, this applies to all distributions that use the Debian .deb package format or the Red Hat .rpm package format, althoughspecific details vary. Also, I'm going to simplify to the common case.
A source RPM contains a specfile, a source tarball, and some number ofpatches. The specfile describes
Why I like modules to be in the Python standard library
