hi
how do you pass vars to rpmbuild for definition? eg
rpmbuild --define \'"${_definition2}"\'
I've been fiddling with ways to escape, but none is fricking working..
I mean, rpmbuild rushes to work(no errors nor failure) so if you try
just the command line do not believe it, because later as it
executes %if you will see process does not see these definitions.
many thanks, L
I'm not sure what you are trying to define above.
Normal convention where one wishes to define _foobar as "foo" for
example would be:
rpmbuild --define '_foobar foo'
or generically
rpmbuild --define 'SomeVariable SomeValue'
Hope that helps
Try to pass bash var to rpmbuild, eg:
$ _def1="_me no"
$ rpmbuild --define ${_def1}
I assume you are doing this in a bash script?
${_def1} may need to be quoted as it contains a space.
But for that I would do the following to make it more readable:
ME="no"
rpmbuild --define '_me ${ME}'
or if ${ME} contains spaces:
rpmbuild --define '_me "${ME}"'
none of of these work for me, like I said earlier I fiddle a bit with
it. I was hoping someone could confirm this and then maybe it's a bug?
