| ''builder'' automatically fetches all files (including the ''spec'' file itself) needed to build the given package (if file license permits, otherwise you will need to manually download and save remaining files to your //~/rpm/SOURCES// directory). After all file requirements are satisfied, ''builder'' launches the ''rpmbuild'' binary that initializes the build process. ''rpmbuild'' starts by checking for unsatisfied package dependencies needed to perform a successful build. If it finds any, ''builder'' will exit giving you a full list of needed packages. You can use ''poldek'' to download and install these. | ''builder'' automatically fetches all files (including the ''spec'' file itself) needed to build the given package (if file license permits, otherwise you will need to manually download and save remaining files to your //~/rpm/SOURCES// directory).

| + | **Warning:** all PLD packages are prepared to be built from a regular user account (without special priviledges) and you should //never use your root account// to build packages for security reasons. Keep in mind that a malfunctioning script has full write access to all your filesystems and can accidentally damage things. This is especially important when working on your own ''spec'' files as a little mistake can cost you hours or days of work. | ||
