Hi Axel,
Can you point me at some documentation for bcond_without? Or is that
something that lurks in your .rpmmacros? Is it just
%{!?without_thingo: %define without_thingo 1}
Cheers
JP

I should say that although I've made a few RPMs I'm not as
experienced as you guys clearly are. For example, I'm not clear on
the use of a web counter that you're talking about. Are you talking
about that as a build-time counter or some sort, or something that
happens at install time?
I wanted to clear up the reason for my original question -- perhaps
it has a bearing on this. I've got a package which builds using gcc
and gfortran. [...]
This probably seems like insanity to you guys: what's the right way out?
I've met that insanity, use conditionals in the sepcfile like for
instance
%bcond_without gfortran
Check out http://dl.atrpms.net/all/fftw.spec for example code. It's
not 100% what you want to do, but stul similar (choosing between
gfortran and g77).
Then build for fc5 as usual, and for non-gfortran systems like fc4 use
rpmbuild --without gfortran ...
Don't abuse disttags for that, that's what upsets Jeff (and he's right
about that).
