Off topic: I hate RPM!  Does anyone have a *good* document where
all this stuff is documented?  Half the stuff in .spec files seems to
be undocumented magic.

I know what you mean, there's a lot of lore. I pick up a lot from other spec files, and some from when I followed the RPM mailing list. The RPM website (http://www.rpm.org/) has improved somewhat with better documentation.


Ah, here's the spot in Maximum RPM that documents the script arguments:

<http://rpm-devel.colug.net/max-rpm/s1-rpm-inside-scripts.html>

Look at the section titled "Install/Erase-time Scripts".

(I read through the hardcopy of Maximum RPM that came with my copy of RH 5.2.)
