[olug] building devel RPMs

[Eric Pierce]

A while back someone on the list taught me the '--enable-shared' configure
option for building header files along w/the executables.

I used this config option recently when compiling GTK 2.2.2.  I then used
'checkinstall' (instead of 'make install' directly), and created one RPM which
had all the GTK libs as well as the header files.

Now the question: On my SuSE system, the RPMs on the CDs are always broken into
2 matching pairs (ex. alsa & alsa-devel).  Is there another command besides a
straight 'make install' to just install the header files after I've compiled a
program?  And a command to just install the files necessary to execute the
program?

Just curious...
