Actually it's quite new... http://rpm5.org/cvs/chngview?cn=15680 optional-dirname-and-symlink-deps http://rpm5.org/cvs/chngview?cn=15735 rpm-lua-extensions-based-on-rpm-lib-functionality http://rpm5.org/cvs/chngview?cn=16017 old-comparision-behaviour It came from splitting vendor configuration into autotools configuration: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/rpm/+spec/rpm-split-vendor-config-in-autofu Actual config is the same.
