Oh, boy. That's a new one on me. Is this integrated into the mock environment? Because if it's not, and this macro is required on a widespread basis, I'm going to have a pain in the neck integrating it there. This is especially true because I'm using the EPEL testing mock, which is at version 1.0.13, produces much smaller mock chroot cages by flushing unnecessary logs, makes much smaller cached tarballs, and handles autofs enabled build hosts a lot better. In fact, updating mock would be good, but I've not found time to attack that for RPMforge use. _______________________________________________ suggest mailing list suggest@lists.rpmforge.net http://lists.rpmforge.net/mailman/listinfo/suggest
