- sudo yum groupinstall 'Development Tools'
- sudo yum install openssl-devel python
- mkdir -p ~/rpmbuild/BUILD ~/rpmbuild/RPMS ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/i386 ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/noarch ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64 ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/ ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES ~/rpmbuild/SPECS ~/rpmbuild/SRPMS
- echo '%_topdir %(echo $HOME)/rpmbuild' >> ~/.rpmmacros
- wget -P ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.8.18/node-v0.8.18.tar.gz
- wget -P ~/rpmbuild/SPECS https://raw.github.com/vibol/node-rpm-spec/master/nodejs.spec
