I downloaded the src.rpm from wine's website(winehq)
#rpmbuild -rebuild wine*.src.rpm; cd /usr/redhat/RPMS/i386
# du -h wine-20050419-1wbel3winehq.i386.rpm
22M wine-20050419-1wbel3winehq.i386.rpm
and following i386.rpm i have downloaded from wine's website.
# du -h wine-20050419-1wbel3winehq.i386.rpm
15M wine-20050419-1wbel3winehq.i386.rpm
I m amazed .... why is the diff b/w the size of the readymade binary, and the
binary i have made via rpmbuild ? one is of 22M and the other is of 15M ...
its a big diff.

SolutionYou'd have to walk through the specfile and the config.status to find out the precise differences.

Re: diff size of the rpm ?
spec files are generally located in /usr/redhat/SPECS

Re: diff size of the rpm ?
If you really want to look at them, do the following:
rpm -ivh wine*.src.rpm
cd /usr/src/redhat/SPEC
there will be a 'wine.spec'. From here do:
rpmbuild -ba wine.spec
Once that completes, you'll have RPMS in '/usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/', and you'll have the built source in '/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/wine*', including the config information (which was generated by the 'configure' command during the build).
