This directory contains everything needed to build x86_64 RPMs of algernon for Fedora 43 and Fedora 44.

• algernon.spec — RPM spec, targets Fedora 43 and 44. Installs the binary, mdview, the production systemd unit (algernon.service), the development unit as a .example file under /usr/share/doc/algernon/, the logrotate snippet, the sample serverconf.lua, desktop integration, the man page and the samples/ tree.
• build.sh — produces a source tarball from the git checkout, builds an SRPM and then runs mock once per target release. Falls back to plain rpmbuild on the current host when mock is unavailable (the other Fedora release is skipped with a warning). Output lands in dist/.

On a Fedora host with rpm-build, rpmdevtools and mock installed, and the current user in the mock group:

./build.sh

RPMs are written to:

dist/fedora-43-x86_64/
dist/fedora-44-x86_64/

Without mock, build.sh falls back to rpmbuild --rebuild on the host and only produces an RPM for the host's own Fedora release.

# Create the source tarball and SRPM
./build.sh   # or extract the relevant commands from it
mock -r fedora-44-x86_64 --rebuild dist/srpm/algernon-*.src.rpm

• The spec uses the vendored dependencies committed to vendor/, so the mock chroot does not need network access during the build.
• ExclusiveArch: x86_64 matches the current Arch PKGBUILD; drop or extend it if other architectures are tested.
• The version string in algernon.spec must track version.sh. Update both together when cutting a release.
