Does this analysis seem correct? Yes. $ rpm -qp GtkAda-2.18.0-2.fc17.src.rpm --qf "%{exclusivearch}\n" %{GNAT_arches} > If so, what should I do about it? Should macros simply not be used in the > ExclusiveArch directive? I see ghc_arches, mono_arches and ocaml_arches in > other files in /etc/rpm. Those files all belong to redhat-rpm-config.

Sounds plausible, because with redhat-rpm-config in the buildroot, the src.rpm would be fine with a defined macro. > Is it significant that all three filenames end in "-srpm"? Or > should this be considered a bug in Koji? I think the -srpm in there is not important. $ ls /etc/rpm macros.color macros.fjava macros.mono-srpm macros.systemd macros.dist macros.gconf2 macros.ocaml-srpm macros.texlive macros.emacs macros.ghc-srpm macros.perl macros.faldor macros.jpackage macros.prelink -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
