[ros-users] [Discourse.ros.org] [Next Generation ROS] Creating a top CMakeLists.txt to standardize all the ROS2 core packages building with CMake

if we want to build those ros2 packages as RPM package ...

You should map each ROS package to a RPM package. That is the same way as it is done in ROS 1 and for Debian packages in ROS 2.

And Bloom should already support `spec` file generation. That was added for Fedora support of ROS 1.

While bloom supports `spec` file generation for ROS 1 I don't think it  does for ROS 2 at the moment. Several patches necessary for ROS 2 where only applied to the Debian process (e.g. https://github.com/ros-infrastructure/bloom/pull/475). I don't have a good overview what else would need to be updated but patching `bloom` to support RPMs in ROS 2 would be the way to go.
