Hi all,
I need a little help. Sagemath packages up through version 9.1
bundled mathjax (several times! with 1 png file for every single
glyph in every single font!), which made the documentation very large.
When I built version 9.2, I attempted to unbundle mathjax, replacing
the relevant directories with symlinks. This requires a %pretrans
scriptlet, as described here:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Directory_Replacement/
My first attempt added a script starting with "%pretrans doc-en -p
<lua>", since sagemath-doc-en is the package containing the
directories-turned-symlinks. I built that version successfully in
mock, installed the old RPMs into a mock chroot, and then successfully
upgraded to the new version without RPM file conflicts. Success!
Except that when I tried to build that version in koji, the SRPM
creation step failed. I unfortunately did not write down the error,
but it pointed to the %pretrans line in the spec, and I somehow
deduced from the error message that something did not understand the
package name just after %pretrans. So I changed it to "%pretrans -p
<lua>" in the most recent commit to the sagemath package git
repository, hoping that that would be okay, because it would still run
before the RPM transaction, right? Well, that didn't work:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1903009
So now what? How does one get "%pretrans [subpackage] -p <lua>" to
pass muster with koji? Am I missing a trick?
Try this (note the -n):
%pretrans -n doc-en -p <lua>
See an example in here:
