You mean if the commands were to be moved to some directory not in the default PATH? If you were to write "/usr/bin/make", and then make were moved to /bin, then your script would break, but if you write just "make", then it will still work as long as make is in one of the directories listed in PATH. Moving these commands out of the default PATH would annoy lots of people very very much, so it won't happen. Therefore I think writing "make" is just as future-proof as "%{__make}", and it's easier to read. The macros aren't forbidden though, as far as I know. > But ppmbuild don't add next requires: > perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_5.10.0) You should keep that one, according to the guidelines. > perl-Unicode-Map or perl(Unicode::Map) perl-Spreadsheet-ParseExcel depends on perl(Unicode::Map), so you get that pulled in by the automatic dependency on perl(Spreadsheet::ParseExcel) > perl-libintl When I build the package I get an automatic dependency on perl(Locale::Recode), which perl-libintl provides. > Sorry, I don't want change tabs to spaces. Well, if this is what you want others to see when they read your spec, it's your choice: http://www.rombobjörn.se/diverse/xls2csv.png It is a requirement that the spec be legible, but this misalignment isn't bad enough to make it illegible, so I suppose it's allowed. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
