Well, I have not yet even written anything new to the spec file. This is a fork of an official Fedora package, and I'm still trying to make sense of everything. All the tags contained inside %if blocks, and all the patches and so on, existed before I started. So I assume the Mozilla packaging team knows some things that I don't. Really, I think another great solution would be to make the RPM spec file more whitespace-agnostic. Why allow indentation for %macros, but ban it for tags? But, point taken: I'll see if splitting into multiple spec files would make things easier to manage. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
