Quite recently a few macros were added to fedora-release: %dist_vendor, %dist_name, %dist_home_url and %dist_bug_report_url. These will eventually be documented in the Fedora packaging guidelines and you can see the initial PR at https://pagure.io/packaging-committee/pull-request/1198
I was considering how this interacts with EPEL. If these macros are not added to RHEL then EPEL could just define them with EPEL-appropriate values and all is well. But if they are added to RHEL, EPEL will need to decide if the values used by Red Hat (or whatever base distribution is being used to build) are appropriate. And if not, is it appropriate for EPEL to override the RHEL values? (This was done back in the EPEL6 days so there is precedent but that was a long time ago.) - J< _______________________________________________ epel-devel mailing list -- epel-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to epel-devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/epel-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
