I have a package[1] that I'm updating to a new upstream version. Upstream, the
project uses meson to compile the binaries (written in Go), as well as generate
and install a number of data files. I want to use meson to compile and install
the project downstream because I feel meson does a good job managing all the
data files and installation directories.
I am trying to replicate the logic of the %gobuild macro so that I can continue
to use meson *and* use as much of the go-rpm-macros as possible, with as little
duplication as possible. Upstream, I have defined custom_targets[3] for the Go
binaries with the following command array:
> [go, 'build', gobuildflags, '-o', '@OUTPUT@', '-ldflags', goldflags,
> packagename]
gobuildflags is an array that is constructed[4] from a meson build option[3].
In my spec %build, I attempt to set the gobuildflags meson build option like so:
> %meson -Dgobuildflags=%{shescape:%gobuildflags}
When meson parses the incoming gobuildflags value and splits the string into an
array, it separates the value of the -tags flag into two separate single-quoted
command line arguments like this (extracted from the resulting ninja.build):
> COMMAND = /usr/bin/go build -buildmode pie -compiler gc
> '-tags="rpm_crashtraceback' '$${BUILDTAGS:-}"' ...
Is there some other way I can pass the output of %gobuildflags into meson as a
build option that doesn't split apart the double-quoted values like this?
