Is there any way, in a spec file, to include another spec file
snippet, similar to #include in C or source/eval in shell scripts?
My dilemma is this:
I maintain many spec files which need to build on different
distributions (RHEL, Fedora, Suse, etc). I have achieved this
through a series of custom macros. These macros, which determine the
build platform and distribution, are the same across all the spec
files. I find myself needing to update those macros from time to
time, and would like to avoid changing every single spec file which
contains them.
I can get around this by having a comment act as a placeholder in my
spec file, and having my build system import the platform detection
macros, but I'm hoping there's a way to do it entirely within
rpmbuild and the spec file. I played around with something like %
(cat /path/to/spec), which seems to correctly import the file, but %
define and other macros don't get processed, so that would only be
useful for tags.
Thanks,
-Jon
