I am still playing with idea of executing RPM dependency generators on the
.spec file which ships them. I have created RPM RFE ticket quite a while ago
here:

https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/issues/782

So for no luck with having this implemented.

However, I think there is reasonable way. It would be enough to have some
generic attr file around. I have create small test package exploring this
idea and you can find it in my Copr repo:

https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/vondruch/rpm-local-generator/

https://copr-dist-git.fedorainfracloud.org/cgit/vondruch/rpm-local-generator/rpm-local-generator-support.git/tree/rpm-local-generator-support.spec

On the same place, you can also find package leveraging this concept:

https://copr-dist-git.fedorainfracloud.org/cgit/vondruch/rpm-local-generator/rpm-local-generator-test.git/tree/rpm-local-generator-test.spec

Would somebody else benefit from this idea/package or can somebody spot some
issue with it? Thx for feedback.

That's hilarious because it's completely out of specification for the genarators
<https://rpm-software-management.github.io/rpm/manual/dependency_generators.html#generators>:

     A generator is just an executable that reads file name(s) from stdin

While your rpm-local-generator-test.spec redefines it to a function reading
an argument:

     %global __local_generator_provides() local-generator-provide(%%{basename:%{1}})

I'd like to see comments from RPM maintainers.


This is documented:

https://rpm-software-management.github.io/rpm/manual/dependency_generators.html#parametric-macro-generators-rpm--416

I have used the function just because of simplicity, nothing else. You can see real life usage of the function generators here:

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-rpm-generators/blob/rawhide/f/pythonname.attr




Does it work for multiple files packaged in rpm-local-generator-test.spec?


The test example includes two files and there are generated provides for both of them So yes, it works for multiple files if I understand your question.
