In Fedora there have been parallel python2 and > python3 stacks so that might seem a reasonable example but Fedora has never > shipped more than one version of perl and so there's not really a need for > configurability here. So I prefer the tidier, shorter version. I have always been in favor of "%perl" and consider package which are using perl to be sloppily maintainedd, because it a) is an absolute path, which avoids picking up an arbitrary "perl" in $PATH, and thus improves deterministic builds b) the possibility for fedora to ship another perl >> 0 (Perl6, Scls). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
