Your usage of COPR is the _exception_ here. you can "workaround" your particular problem (from the top of my head): - install the macros thing in the copr you are using first - upload a full srpm (which is what you should do anyway as internet downloads are normally forbidden on rpm creation) - upload the sources to the side-cache once you are a packager. The goal here is to make it build in Fedora's infrastructure, not in COPR. While I appreciate being flexible and try to accommodate other options (%autorelease and %autochangelog come to mind), to me having 6 lines *duplicated* in *hundreds* of packages is an absolute _no go_ (specially when there are ultra easy alternative solutions) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
