I tried doing this in the spec file. But it never worked because the spec file looks for that something else then.

The %{name} > macro takes the value from the Name: field in the spec file. Actually, please keep the upstream tarball name; renaming it shouldn't be necessary. Also, the guidelines contain a recipe for source from github: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:SourceURL#Github What you'll need is to provide the _original_ name to the %setup macro. In this case, that'd be '%setup -q -n stapler'. > If I recall correctly, Fedora packaging guidelines says the package name > should be something like python-stapler. It kind of depends. That is the case for python _modules_ — packages intended to be used by other python programs. However, this is a utility which happens to be written in Python — it doesn't need that prefix (but you _could_ do that). There a number of other issues in the spec file currently — I'll address them separately. -- Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora Project Leader -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
