Thanks! Here's what I've come up with so far for a pkg I'm working on. This is to deal with the resulting source file name not matching the %{source} URL when using --content-disposition: Name: python-symmetric-jsonrpc ... Version: 0.1 Release: 1%{?dist} URL: https://github.com/niligulmohar/%{name}/ Source: https://github.com/niligulmohar/%{name}/tarball/release-%{version} # using wget --content-disposition %{source} yields this filename: Source1: niligulmohar-%{name}-release-%{version}-0-g0599f28.tar.gz ... %prep %setup -q -T -b 1 -n niligulmohar-%{name}-06189d9 Any further recommendations? Thanks -- Andy p.s. tried editing the wiki but didn't have privs, so may need to defer to an admin once we figure out the best github hack^Wprocedure. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
