Instructions on how to build RPM's for Fedora, this may work with other RPM
based distros like CentOS.

1. Install RPM build tools:
   $ sudo dnf install rpmdevtools

2. Create the build environment as the user you want to build as (NOT root):
   $ rpmdev-setuptree

3. Clone the ola git repository to /tmp:
   $ sudo dnf install git # install git if you haven't already
   $ cd /tmp
   $ git clone https://github.com/OpenLightingProject/ola.git
   $ cd ola
   $ git checkout X.Y.Z # If you want a specific version
   $ autoreconf -i && ./configure && make dist
   $ cp ola-X.Y.Z.tar.gz ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/

4. Install requires build dependencies of ola:
   $ sudo dnf install libmicrohttpd-devel cppunit-devel protobuf-devel \
                      protobuf-compiler protobuf-python libftdi-devel \
                      openslp-devel uuid-devel libtool bison flex \
                      pkgconfig gcc gcc-c++ python2-devel avahi-devel

5. Build ola from the spec file:
   $ cd ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/
   $ cp /tmp/ola/ola.spec ./
   $ rpmbuild -ba ./ola.spec

6. Et voila ! Your RPM's are in ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/noarch/ and ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/<my arch>/ !
