Hi, (resent from mageia-sysadm, it was mean for -dev )
This morning, I deployed a youri hook to unpack rpmlint configuration on valstar when rpmlint-mageia-policy is uploaded, thus allowing to sync the list of exceptions from the package ( which is the canonical one ) with the build system. So while this may seems uninteresting for the vast majority of packagers and cauldron testers ( and it is ), this has some practical effects. The last attempt ( for unexpanded-macro ) showed some false positives, and we were not able to properly keep a exception list. Now, with this, we can. So that mean we can reenable the check 'unexpanded-macro' and others. While I am quite sure enabling it now will trigger a much faster response rate ( because people will not have the choice ), I will enable them in a few days, to let the time to packagers to send exceptions to be added to the packages. So if, when testing packages before upload, you see a error that would block upload, and that is a false positive, just send a email and I will add it ( or just add it to the rpmlint-mageia-policy package, and submit it ) -- Michael Scherer
