The `--rpmbuild-opts` option allows passing options to rpmbuild; e.g.: `--shortcircuit` or options which may not have convenient corresponding macros. > How do I pass smp_mflags -j1 when an SRPM does not support parallel build? You should be able to pass `-D '_smp_mflags 1'` to achive that. Though it's also worth fixing the package to avoid use of `_smp_mflags` if it does not support parallel make. > How do I pass --with-tests (%bcond) or --with-python3 (%configure)? Mock has `--with` and `--without` options which you can use just like you would with rpmbuild; i.e.: `--with tests` or `--with python3`. If the `--with-python3` in your example is a configure option and is not supported in the spec file via a `%bcond_with(out)` option, then the previous example won't work. You'd probably need to fix the spec file in that case, as it likely needs more than just adding the configure option. It would (almost surely) need a `BuildRequires: python3-devel` and/or other python3 dependencies, -- Todd ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ How am I supposed to hallucinate with all these swirling colors distracting me? -- Lisa Simpson _______________________________________________ buildsys mailing list -- buildsys@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to buildsys-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/buildsys@lists.fedoraproject.org
