I'm new to rpmbuild + spec files and I tried the following tutorial to build the "hello world" example.
Manage to get it working, but I wanted to learn how dependencies/requires works. Therefore, I tried to duplicate another "hello world 2" example and link it as a dependency to the first in the spec file below.
However I keep getting the error below. Is there a way that yum install will pick up the helloworld1 and install automatically when i yum install helloworld2 ?
Any example for me learn from?
