For this example, I want to build a new mozilla-python27 package based on 2.7.3 instead of 2.7.2. I'm going to fetch the original .src.rpm and extract it into a subdirectory: | For this example, I want to build a new mozilla-python27 package based on 2.7.3 instead of 2.7.2.

Now we want to rebuild the package. | |||
<pre> | |||
$ rm -rf /usr/local/var/tmp/mach/* | |||
$ mach='mach --debug -r centos-6-x86_64-os' | |||
$ $mach clean | |||
$ $mach build mozilla-python27/python27.spec | |||
</pre> | |||
Note: adjust the target to 'centos-6-i386-os' to generate a 32-bit package. | |||
In this case, though, I wanted to use mock (not mach) to build the final package since my mach build machine does not have access to the Mozilla yum repos. | |||
