Summary: Review Request: netcdf-decoder Converts WMO GRIB products into NetCDF files https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=215445 ------- Additional Comments From Jochen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 2007-01-25 14:28 EST ------- I will cite: Why the %makeinstall macro should not be used Fedora's RPM includes a %makeinstall macro but it must NOT be used when make install DESTDIR=%{buildroot} will work. %makeinstall is a kludge that can work with Makefiles that don't make use of the DESTDIR variable but it has the following potential issues: * %makeinstall overrides a set of environment variables during "make install". I.e. it performs make prefix="..." includedir="..." ... * It is error prone, and can have unexpected effects when run against less than perfect Makefiles. * It can trigger unnecessary rebuilds when executing "make install" * If a package contains libtool archives, it can cause broken *.la files to be installed. Instead, Fedora packages should use: make DESTDIR=%{buildroot} install or make DESTDIR=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT install Thsi is a list of reasons why %Makeinstall should not used. Sory for any inconviniences. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
