At one point we had the system so it would generate an SRPM. But you have to
remember the SRPM is just a container, this isn't going to build something you
can bring to your favorite RPM based distribution and build.
The code would take the configure/compile/install steps and dump them into the
spec, along with references to the source and patches. This way everything was
in one convenient place, but again -- it's not going to work standalone.
To build software for the YP, you really need to use the build environment -- or
an SDK.
