From Fedora Project Wiki

WordPress plugins are packaged for Fedora so that the plugin can be used for both wordpress and wordpress-mu without requiring both.

Requirements for packaging

  • Use the specfile template
  • Set plugin_name and plugin_human_name by appending the first two lines appropriately
    • plugin_name is the short name used in the URL for the plugin's page on wordpress.org
    • plugin_human_name is the full name of the plugin as displayed on the plugin's page on wordpress.org
  • Fill in the version of the package as it is displayed in the .zip filename
  • Fill in a package description in both places where it says "Your plugin's description goes here."

Example

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/stats/

%global plugin_name stats
%global plugin_human_name WordPress.com Stats

Notes

  • The spec must be named wordpress-plugin-%{plugin_name}.spec as per the naming guidelines
  • Remember to enter a changelog entry
