There is lots of useful information about Fedora packaging at: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/KernelModules http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Java The RPM should have any dependencies required for installation. The only requires in the specfile seen is: Requires: java There are some other requires that should be listed for Java packages. Looking through the README there is also a a requirement for systemtap. There is also description of building things from source for Eclipse. That should be a part of the rpmbuild build process to build all those jar files in stapguiclient/plugins/. Looking in that directory there are something like 30+MB of jar files and those appeared to be packaged as part of the source tarball. The following link mentions not including prebuilt jars: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Java#Pre-built_JAR_files_.2F_Other_bundled_software -Will
