[...] One problem with these sysusers rpm macros is that they expand to the scriptlets very early: before even the main source tarball is extracted. This is why the fedora packaging guideline more or less forces them to be first-class spec sources. In the case of systemtap, we worked around this by moving the sysusers config files right into the spec file - out of the source tarball - and feed them to %pre and %install scripts by hand. https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/systemtap/blob/rawhide/f/systemtap.spec#_91 https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/systemtap/blob/rawhide/f/systemtap.spec#_688 https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/systemtap/blob/rawhide/f/systemtap.spec#_818 IMO this is ugly and unfortunate. - FChE _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
