do i have to install @development-tools?

[fedvasu]

so do i have to , i feel the ridiculous amount of packages are not required to build a simple package , if i have to that would be a great minus --.

I'm noob , i'm just learning to package.Currently following "How to create RPM package " wiki of the official fedora docs

It is recommended there to install "core" development tools using

yum installl @developer-tools

No, you do not. It really is over kill to install that huge load of stuff. You can just download whatever development files you need as you go for each package your compiling/packaging for. I just use the "install as needed" philosophy when compiling source code.

thanks for confirmation and clarification , somebody has to take that down from the wiki !!

i'll just install fedora-packager and install build dependencies as required.
