But %define isn't a "local definition" in the sense that you're thinking of. It's certainly visible outside of %check, for example. Which actual property of %define are you relying upon here? I don't think you're doing anything specific with nested macro expansions. It doesn't really make that much difference in the packages you mention, but you seem to have some misconception of the differences between %global and %define. See: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines?rd=Packaging/Guidelines#.25global_preferred_over_.25define and the thread beginning at https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-packaging/2009-May/msg00095.html - J< -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
