Could you push all these changes back to the rpm-5_4 branch too please? That's where the buildbot's are running, and I am active. Otherwise these changes are gonna reside on HEAD until a ROADMAP or participation exists, and that isn't likely soon. Thanks! 73 de Jeff On Sep 6, 2011, at 10:41

Instead of adding sparkly rubt gem's, you ought to teach %setup to unpack from *.src.rpm's by adding a rpm2cpio layer and recursing through the unpacked %prep in the *.spec. The other approach is with rpm -q --yaml onto the *.src.rpm, one would need to expand the %setup there. But --yaml works

It sure would be nice to have %patch as a macro rather than flip-flopping and jiggering up Yet More Complicated Silly Stuff, all forcing rpm rpm be recompiled. I haven't a clue anymore (because of the number of flip-flops) how patches are applied by rpmbuild. Can the #ifndef DYING

This brings up something we've discussed here at Wind River. Would it be possible to make %setup and/or %patch into macros (perhaps using lua?) (I'm thinking for rpm5 - HEAD, not 4_5.) The reason we're interested is that we have mechanisms that track patches being applied (think quilt), and

While there's nothing wrong withe your patch, there's simply no reason not to just pass *all* patch options directly to patch. That dumps a bunch of silly code from rpmbuild. The reason for the parsePrep.c jiggery pokery is transparently remapping ancient patch's CLI option change that was
