Instructions on how to build a RPM for Mandriva, this may work with other RPM
based distros.

1. Install RPM build tools:
   $ urpmi rpm-build libtool spec-helper

2. Create the build environment:
   $ mkdir -p ~/rpm/{BUILD,RPMS/{i586,noarch,x86_64},SOURCES,SRPMS,SPECS,tmp}

3. Either download the latest tarball, or if you want to build a RPM from the
   git repo:
   $ cd /tmp
   $ urpmi git
   $ git clone http://www.nomis52.net/git/lla
   $ cd lla
   $ autoreconf -i -f && ./configure && make dist
   $ cp ola-X.Y.Z.tar.gz ~/rpm/SOURCES/

4. Add Kev's repository to get latest libmicrohttpd and protobuf
   (here for 64bits Mandriva 2009.1):
   $ urpmi.addmedia --update kev-rpms \
     http://kev.coolcavemen.com/static/repository/mandriva/2009.1/x86_64

   For more details, see http://kev.coolcavemen.com/mandriva-rpm-repository/

5. Install requires build dependencies of ola:
   $ urpmi libmicrohttpd-devel libcppunit-devel protobuf-devel

6. Build ola from the spec file:
   $ cd ~/rpm/SPECS/
   $ cp /tmp/lla/ola/spec ./
   $ rpmbuild -ba ./ola.spec

7. Et voila ! Your RPM is in ~/rpm/SPECS/<my_arch>/ !
