Well, the thread instantly drifted from discussing the default to discussing removing it altogether. Unfortunately the arguments are only found at the beginning of the thread, so you may want to check that. In short id -un doesn't make sense, even epoch or target/arch would make more far more sense in a guideline's BuildRoot. Note that the guidelines are also there to educate people how to write clean and non-obfuscated specfiles. I'm quite sure the BuildRoot is cut & pasted in 99.99% of the packages making it a defacto proper thing to do. If it's bogus we need to fix it and not endorse it furthermore. Two independent reviewer considered this a blocker for a review's acceptance (even though it's marked "preferred"). -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
