%files -f and %defattr

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

 



http://www.rpm.org/RPM-HOWTO/build.html says
%defattr affects files lower in the %files section.
It also says that the -f option to %files lets you
specify a file of files.  Since the -f is inevitably
above the %defattr, it seems to follow that %defattr
has no effect on files listed in the argument to %files -f.
Truth or fiction?

I tried to poke at the source code to figure it out,
but didn't achieve enlightenment in five minutes.
Maybe somebody here knows?

Thanks,
Dan
