Then the macros will be always available for everyone anytime regardless being deliery by redhat-rpm-config or any other package.
My reasoning for having specific macros in specific package instead of in redhat-rpm-config is that it separates responsibility and accountibility. If something goes wrong, locating the real cause by comparing build root listing is easier than diffing redhat-rpm-config files. Also letting tens of people commit into redhat-rpm-config does not sound for me correct and safe. -- Petr -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
