Here's a good start:  http://www.rpm.org/RPM-HOWTO/

I was in a similar situation as you a few months back and found building your own RPMs not hard at all (I was already familiar w/ building Solaris pkgs). Spend a few days playing with it and you'll find out all sorts of cool stuff you can do with it.

Why not, but I don't know how to do this.
Is there a good tutorial ? ;)

Thanks
