* Sun Jul 04 2010 Erk <[email protected]> Generated by CPack RPM (no Changelog file were provided) On some systems (eg Fedora 18), the package manager complains about the form of the first line. The error message is something like this: *Could not parse header:* 'Erk <[email protected]>', *expected*: 'Firstname Lastname <[email protected]> - version-release' The error message is fairly self-explanatory. Can we change the default name format to "firstname lastname" instead of just a single name/pseudonym? It might also be worth testing on multiple linux distributions. I think I've come across this before and had discussions with the package authors (might have been the LSB SDK but I can't find it in their mailing list archives) and IIRC, different linux distributions' package managers might make different assumptions about the form of the changelog message. ====================================================================== Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 2013-07-07 20:33 Craig Scott New Issue ====================================================================== -- Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cmake-developers
