Hello, I'm trying to figure out macros naming conventions. >From /usr/share/lib/rpm/macros: # Macros that begin with an underscore are "local" in the sense that # they (if used) will not be exported in rpm headers. Some macros that # don't start with an underscore (but look like they should) are # compatible with macros generated by rpm-2.5.x and will be made more # consistent in a future release. I know it explains it there, but I'm not sure what "local" here means. Also, there are macros that start with a double underscore, Are they different from the rest? For example: %buildroot, %_rpmdir, and %__install, which are similar in that they all expand to a path, all follow different naming schemes. Just curious:-) Tarek. -- "Art is either plagiarism or revolution." - Paul Guaguin _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
