Hi @dinesh.

1. We have RPM out for 2.0.0 already and will have for 1.3.2 ~~soon~~ now. See [RPM Distributions delayed again? - #32 by bbarani](https://forum.opensearch.org/t/rpm-distributions-delayed-again/6994/32).
2. If you want to try with docker image then you can use images and args here:  
[opensearch-build/opensearch-2.0.0-rc1.yml at main · opensearch-project/opensearch-build · GitHub](https://github.com/opensearch-project/opensearch-build/blob/main/manifests/2.0.0-rc1/opensearch-2.0.0-rc1.yml#L4-L6)

Building on linux is way easier than tweaking on mac, even I who develop on mac didnt test rpm building on mac.

rpmbuild is specifically needed as we use it to parse the spec file and create the final package. On my mac, I install rpm through brew and get rpmbuild automatically, so not sure why you dont have that available.

Thanks.
