Extras Builds

Hi Everyone,
 This was actually opened up for everyone yesterday but I found a couple
more problems and wanted to get them addressed before I announced it.

'make build' is open.

After you check in a package and get it approved you should run 'make
tag' to tag the package then run 'make build TARGET=distrover' to get it
built.

so for a Fedora Extras 3 package you'd run:
 make build TARGET=FC3

for a Fedora Extras Development package you'd run:
 make build TARGET=development


eventually, once FC4 is released you'd run:
 make build TARGET=FC4

you should make sure you're in the correct branch directory, of course.

The only thing to look out for is conflicts in the 'tobuild' file. Right
now this file is updated via the 'make build' command and checked into
cvs. In the very near future it will be submitting the job to an xml-rpc
server which will store the build request in a db.
