Is there an online source code browser for Fedora Packages?
I've never heard of such a thing, and it would be a big project. I hope someone knows of one, it would be convenient.
As far as I'm aware, the way to do this is to create a build tree in your home directory, rpmdev-setuptree and then get the src.rpm package, yumdownloader --source<package name> and install it in the build tree, as a user. rpm -ivh<package name> Once this is done, move to the SPEC directory, cd ~/rpmbuild/SPEC and run the rpmbuild command to unpack everything. rpmbuild -bp<package name>.spec At this point the source will be unpacked in ~/rpmbuild/BUILD/<package name> You can then look at it with the editor of your choice.
Right - except that requires googles of storage I do not have :)
