Geoffroy,
Looking a all spec files for oscar let me think that using
/etc/rpm/macros.oscar could greatly easy oscar rpm packaging.
I mean, we could have some macros defined here once for all instead of having
those defined from time to time in different package.
We could also use an oscar_home macro pointing to /opt.
Thus, if one need another place, no need to edit all the spec files.
for example, python_sitedir is defined in RHEL 6 but not in previous releases,
thus, for now, we have stuffs like this:
%{expand:%%define py_ver %(python -V 2>&1| awk '{print $2}')}
%{expand:%%define py_libver %(python -V 2>&1| awk '{print $2}'|cut -d. -f1-2)}
...
%files
%defattr(-,root,root)
%dir /usr/%{_lib}/python%{py_libver}/site-packages/libapitest
/usr/%{_lib}/python%{py_libver}/site-packages/libapitest/*
...
while we could have:(provided a /etc/rpm/macros.oscar is part of oscar-devel)
# no macro defs in spec
...
%files
%defattr(-,root,root)
%dir %{python_sitelib}/libapitest
%{python_sitelib}/libapitest/*
...
I've attached a file that could be used as a start base.
I think it could be generated from a skeleton in the oscar-base build.
The big advantage of such an aproach is that it would be compatible with
curret spec files that (re)define values, so the port to simplified rpm
architecture would be easy and could be done spec by spec.
Do you agree for such a mod?
