Hi
Please accept the following patch to the rpm spec file.
Thanks for the report. However, I'm not yet quite convinced that your
proposed patch is the best approach. I'll explain, focusing on just the
nwfilter macros as an example.
[snip]
Perhaps it would be simpler to do something like this, which 1) fixes
client_only to allow user override on appropriate platforms, and 2) sets
default values based on inspecting _both_ with and without variants.
This is not a complete patch, so much as a request for further
discussion. The idea is to demonstrate how defining the defaults for
with_libvirtd and with_polkit should consider the _with_ variant in
addition to the _without_ variant; again with the end result being 0 to
disable, nonzero (whether 010, 011, or 001) to enable.
In my case, I was trying to override the behaviour of the spec file
which is to (in the case of with_openvz)
1) set sane defaults for variables near the top
%define with_openvz0%{!?_without_openvz:%{server_drivers}}
2) override these with platform specific values later on
%if 0%{?rhel}
%define with_openvz 0
...
%endif
3) use the overridden values. ignoring the user-supplied options
In your patch, it still does not change the above behaviour, as the
defaults are set near the top, but still force overridden further down
The following may be a better way of expressing the dependencies
1) set sane defaults for variables near the top
%define with_openvz0%{!?_without_openvz:%{server_drivers}}
2) override these with platform specific values later on (but taking
cognisance of the user supplied options
%if 0%{?rhel}
%define with_openvz 0%{?_with_openvz:1}
...
%endif
This is already used in some cases where certain features are turned on
on specific platforms:
%if 0%{?fedora} = 13 || 0%{?rhel} = 6
%define with_dtrace 0%{!?_without_dtrace:1}
%endif
So the bulk of the changes would be updating the spec file to replace
%define with_xxx 0
with
%define with_xxx 0{?_with_xxx:1}
And then also updating for the client_only settings as shown below as
well

Chris
