All these macros are driving me crazy! How do you know tidbits like $RPM_INSTALL_PREFIX ? Years and Years ago I learned how to make RPMs from "Maximum RPM". I suppose that was 10 years ago, before there was so much emphasis on macros in SPEC files. Has anyone written a more-or-less complete tutorial like Maximum RPM for the modern age? -- Paul E.
