Re: "10" < "9": Get rid of string comparisons in time for F-10?

[Hans Ulrich Niedermann <hun@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

A short reminder what this is about:

    %if "%{?fedora}" > "7"
    <something which should work in F-8, F-9, F-10, F-11, etc.>
    %endif

This fails to work as intended in rawhide/devel/F10 and later and should 
be fixed.

Summary for 2008-07-06
----------------------
devel:  58 string comparisons in 32 spec files
F-9:    78 string comparisons in 46 spec files
F-8:   109 string comparisons in 56 spec files
F-7:   118 string comparisons in 62 spec files

The packages in rawhide will definitely be affected by this, might 
already be breaking stuff, and really should be fixed:

Graphing the numbers over time shows a definite decrease in 
devel/rawhide/F10, but nothing approaching zero for a long time:
