Stepan's personal tap for homebrew formulae

This tap was originally created when I've decided to move from MacPorts (http://www.macports.org/) to Homebrew (http://brew.sh/) and one major things that I was immediately missing was createrepo tool for generating rpm repositories metadata.

How do I install these?

  • I suppose you have Homebrew installed (if not follow instructions at http://brew.sh/)
  • Add this tap: brew tap stepanstipl/noop
  • Install what you want: brew install <formula>

Formulae in this tap:

  • Createrepo tool for generating rpm repositories metadata.
  • Latest stable version 0.4.11.

yum-metadata-parser (http://yum.baseurl.org/)

  • Fast yum metadata parser in C. Dependency for createrepo.
  • Version 1.1.4.
  • Classical rpm tool - version 4, version used by main Linux distributions like RHEL, CentOS and Fedora (default one in Homebrew is rpm5, but that one does not have python bindings required by createrepo).
  • This one conflicts with default rpm.
  • Version 4.11.1.

Issues:

Please use GitHub's issue tracker for reporting issues and eventually any suggestions etc. Please, please follow Homebrew's section Troubleshooting before you report any issue https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew#troubleshooting.

sqlite3 needs to be installed and linked, else pkg-config fails and makes whole python setup.py build step to fail
