In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install Tito, a tool for packaging and releasing RPM-based software. Tito fetches version information from your SCM, generates changelogs, and automatically does release tagging for RPMs.
Before we proceed with the installation, ensure that you have the following:
To begin, open the terminal by pressing Ctrl + Alt + T on your keyboard or by searching for it in the Applications Menu.
Before installing Tito, we need to ensure that our system's APT package repository is updated by running the following command in the terminal:
sudo apt-get update
When prompted, enter your password to authenticate the sudo user.
Tito requires several packages to run smoothly. To install them, we will run the following command:
sudo apt-get install -y rpm rpm-build git
The above command will install the necessary packages and dependencies for running Tito on Elementary OS Latest.
Now that we have installed the necessary packages, we can proceed to clone Tito from GitHub. To do that, run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/dgoodwin/tito.git
The above command will clone the Tito repository onto your local machine.
To install Tito on your system, we need to navigate to the Tito source directory by running the following command:
cd tito
After navigating to the Tito source directory, we can proceed to run the installation script:
sudo python3 setup.py install
This command will install Tito on your system.
To verify that Tito is installed correctly, you can run the following command:
tito version
If Tito is correctly installed, you should see a version number displayed on the terminal.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Tito on your Elementary OS Latest machine. You can now start using Tito to package and release your RPM-based software.
