+# How to compile an RPM
+
+First install the dependencies as root:
+
+    yum install arduino-core perl-Device-SerialPort help2man rpm-build
+
+From the top-level Arduino-Makefile directory you've checked out of github, run the following (as unprivileged user) to create a compressed tarball using the naming conventions required by rpmbuild:
+
+    git archive --prefix=arduino-mk-1.1.0/ --format=tar -o ../arduino-mk-1.1.0.tar.gz -v HEAD | gzip
+
+If you don't already have a rpmbuild setup (e.g. you've not installed the SRPM) you will need to create the directories:
+
+    mkdir -p ~/rpmbuild/{SOURCES,SPECS}
+
+Then copy the tarball and specfile into those directories:
+
+    cp ../arduino-mk-1.1.0.tar.gz ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/
+    cp packaging/fedora/arduino-mk.spec ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/
+
+Then compile. This will create a binary and source RPM:
+
+    cd ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/
+    rpmbuild -ba arduino-mk.spec

+%description
+Arduino is an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on 
+flexible, easy-to-use hardware and software. It's intended for artists, 
+designers, hobbyists, and anyone interested in creating interactive 
+objects or environments.
+
+This package will install a Makefile to allow for CLI programming of the 
+Arduino platform.
