I've seen a few spec files with content like this: %configure --disable-static --with-imagemagick --with-magickpp \ --without-libavcodec CPPFLAGS='-DMagickLib=MagickCore -I/usr/include/ImageMagick' There's no backslash before the CPPFLAGS variable, so it's useless. Should rpmlimt warn about this? It would have to allow indentation after %if or shell if/for/while etc. so might be tricky to do for the whole spec file, but just doing it for %configure would have been enough for the cases I've seen recently. Worth creating a BZ enhancement request for rpmlint? -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
