Hardly. I maintain plenty of triple-distro (RH/Fedora, SUSE, and Debian/Ubuntu) spec files of more complex software that are cleaner than Ceph's. The mess is because the Ceph spec file is tremendously regressive compared to current standards for RH/Fedora and SUSE packaging. It doesn't even have the minor fixes I made upstream to the spec for libexecdir stuff. >> >> Here's an example of how I fixed one package: >> https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/allegro5/c/2a59aa1daea345823b81c9b396f5766cba54da78 > > > That might actually be helpful. > > More constructive comments. Less snark. > I *was* going to fix it at some point, but having to parse a complex spec file takes time and effort. And I *really* doubt anyone has seriously analyzed that spec file in recent years. Even *I* haven't completed my *own* analysis of it for rewriting it for my personal use, since there's far too much cruft in the current spec for me to be comfortable with me using for personal builds. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-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/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
