Folks,
I am trying to get a Java development environment setup and I was directed to follow the FC4 jpackage instructions but for FC5 and apparently the first thing required was to install fedora-rpmdevtools from the extras repository but this file is nowhere to be found!
All I got for the list is:
fedora-buildrpmtree Create RPM build tree within user's home directory fedora-installdevkeys Install GPG keys in alternate RPM keyring fedora-kmodhelper Helper script for building kernel module RPMs fedora-md5 Display the md5sum of all files in an RPM fedora-newrpmspec Creates new .spec from template fedora-rmdevelrpms Find (and optionally remove) "development" RPMs fedora-rpmchecksig Check package signatures using alternate RPM keyring fedora-rpminfo Prints information about executables and libraries fedora-rpmvercmp RPM version comparison checker fedora-extract Extract various archives, "tar xvf" style fedora-diffarchive Diff contents of two archives fedora-wipebuildtree Erase all files within dirs created by buildrpmtree spectool Expand and download sources and patches in specfiles
So - where is it... or is this step omitted for FC5 now?
Kind regards, Dan

Looks like the package must have been renamed, since the next step in Paul's HOWTO is to run fedora-buildrpmtree to create the RPM packaging infrastructure for a non-root user. Maybe the renamed package should include a virtual Provides for the old name.
