If that's the case, then I think we'll need two steps to clean up:
1: replace all of the uses of %limit_build and %constrain build, then..
2: replace the %limit_build and %constrain_build macro definitions
with versions that consume the -m and -c arguments, but return
nothing and have no side effects
(and maybe 3: announce the deprecation of those macros somewhere)
Or just make these macros wrappers that do (roughly) the same thing
using the rpm native things. That'd allow folks to keep it compatible
across multiple distro versions, as I imagine some users like Firefox
might want.
I think that if we redefined them to set _smp_tasksize_proc, we could
use SUSE's specs, but not the reverse (as far as I know, they don't have
%constrain_build, and their %limit_build does a different thing). So, I
think we should definitely start by eliminating as many uses as
possible. I opened a bunch of PRs to replace most of them, and:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2404624
One maintainer said that they'd like consensus on that bug, so if you
want to chime in there, it might help get the remaining PRs merged.
