Hmm, to my knowledge the %{rhel} macro is provided by /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/dist.sh which is contained in the redhat-rpm-config package. Don't BR the package, since it's automatically provided by the build environment. If you want to compile packages on your own computers, just make sure redhat-rpm-config is installed. -- Jussi Lehtola Fedora Project Contributor jussilehtola@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
