Hi, I'm a beginner at fedora packaging and following the guide in the
documentation.

I'm using CentOS stream 8 and I've downloaded the source code of yellow. In the
same directory, I've made the spec file, but after I run
fedpkg --release f28 mockbuild
It shows error
Failed to get repository name from Git url or pushurl
Failed to get ns from Git url or pushurl
warning: line 3: Possible unexpanded macro in: Release: %autorelease
error: %changelog entries must start with *
error: query of specfile /home/lucia/cs/fedora-packaging/hello/hello.spec
failed, can't parse
Could not execute mockbuild: ('Could not download sources: %s',
rpkgError('Could not get n-v-r-e from
/home/lucia/cs/fedora-packaging/hello/hello.spec',))
I've checked the other threads but they cannot solve my problem. I also tried
fedpkg mockbuild it shows the same. And also for fedpkg --name hello mockbuild,
get error Could not execute mockbuild: /home/lucia/cs/fedora-packaging/hello is
not a valid repo
I think there is some problem for the source code? I'm so sorry but I really
don't know how to fix this bug QAQ
Following is my spec file:
Name: hello
Version: 2.10
Release: %autorelease
Summary: Produces a familiar, friendly greeting
License: GPL-3.0-or-later
URL: https://www.gnu.org/software/hello/
Source0: https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/hello/hello-%{version}.tar.gz

%description
The GNU Hello program produces a familiar, friendly greeting. Yes, this is
another implementation of the classic program that prints "Hello, world!" when
you run it.
%prep
%autosetup
%build
%configure
%make_build
%install
#rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT

Hi,
Most likely the issue is that the version of RPM on CentOS Stream 8
doesn't understand the %autorelease and %autochangelog macros, which are
relatively new. Unfortunately, the Fedora Packaging Guidelines for the
most part assume you are using a supported Fedora release and not CentOS.
I would recommend switching to use Fedora if you want to learn Fedora
packaging.
Regards,
Scott
