Should we start changing
%doc README COPYING
to
%doc README
%license COPYING
?
Eventually yes, although that'd be up to FPC I guess.
Not yet however: while the produced packages are compatible with all
older rpm versions, the spec is not. As long as there's a chance we
might (temporarily) have to revert back to 4.10, you dont want to
introduce spec-level changes that would cause build-failures on the
older version.
Oh and btw, the same goes for using %autosetup: please do test it
locally [*] and report any issues you may find, but avoid using in
Fedora specs just yet.
The whole %autosetup thing is implemented with macros and should be easy
to pull into older Fedora releases once any early bugs have been shaken out.
[*] Her's a quickstart guide to using %autosetup:
1) Make sure all the patches are using same prefix level (eg -p1)
2) Replace %setup with %autosetup (all the same switches apply), add
patch prefix level if needed with -p<N>
3) Eliminate all %patch directives from the spec
%autosetup defaults to using plain old 'patch' for the automated patch
application, add -S <git|quilt|hg|bzr> to experiment with the DVCS
intergration.
