There's a long-standing RFE to integrate quilt/git/etc into rpmbuild to ease the patch management, I just never seem to get around to it. There are things that can make it easier already though, for example: https://rwmj.wordpress.com/2011/08/09/nice-rpm-git-patch-management-trick/ Also if you're just tired and bored with having to refer to each patch twice just to get it applied, the %{patches} macro can help there too as long as all the patches can be applied with the same flags, you can do something like this: %setup for p in %{patches}; do patch -p1 < ${p} || exit 1 done - Panu - -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
