Hi Lena,
right now the most useful way for me is to do just use make all in the
section you are interested in.

If you use Fedora 7, it is as easy as doing an make dist; make rpms, or,
if you have local modifications to use: make local-dist
these commands will create rpm files under rpmbuild/RPMS and will tell
you if you need any package for dependencies.

The PyKerberos package is the only dependency we have that is not yet
pacakged in F7, you can find a src.rpm in the list archives, download
it, install it with rpm -ivh PyKerb...src.rpm and then build it with
rpmbuild -ba /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/PyKerberos.spec, rpm files will be
located under /usr/src/redhat/RPMS

cheers,
Simo.
