Hi, I was doing rebase for gutenprint pre-release in recent rawhide (fc27) and I couldn't build it because I had %VERSION macro defined by myself and it got rewritten by default macro %version. That indicates rpm macros have been case insensitive since fc27 (colleague told me the same situation is in fc26 too, but I encountered it in fc27). Would anyone mind explaining why such change was introduced for RPM macros, please? IMHO I do not think it is good idea, because it shrinks group of useful names for packager defined RPM macros. I hope I didn't miss discussion about it in the past. If that's so, my apologies for duplicate.
