RPM builds and Vendor tag

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm looking for some direction on using the vendor tag in RPMs that my
organization is re-rolling.

The vendor Tag


The vendor tag is used to define the name of the entity that is responsible
for packaging the software. Normally, this would be the name of an
organization. Here's an example:
                                                                            
 Vendor: White Socks Software, Inc.                                         
                                                                            
                                                                            


My question is, that if I simple re-roll the RPM to change the dist tag (no
spec file changes or install changes); should I also change the vendor tag
to my organization?
