After he wrote up his experience, he found out about the excellent and extensive xref:creating-rpm-packages.adoc[How to create an RPM package] page on this wiki, as well as the Christian Lyder Jacobsen's website, which is unfortunately not available anymore.
However, Christian isn't planning to update his site, and it seemed that a 5-minute 'fast food' alternative to the more extensive article might suit some people.
More in-depth information on using and building RPM packages is available from link:dnf.adoc[other sources].
