To generate RPM packages from the build, supply the -DRPM=xxx flag to CMake, where the value xxx is the name of the distribution you're building for. For example, centos7 or rocky8 or fedora36 or sles12.

What these do are controlled in the following CMake files:

• cmake/cpack_rpm.cmake
• cmake/build_configurations/mysql_release.cmake
• cmake/mariadb_connector_c.cmake

To build the packages you should execute:

$ umask 0022
$ make packages
