You could utilize a system call in a macro definition, BUT if you are
cleanly updating the changelog section as well, you'd still have to add
something there.

Subject : how to generate version and release numbers in spec files
dynamically?
At the top of spec files we have entries for version and release
information like:
Version: 1.0
Release: 5
I'd like this information to be auto-retrieved from values in files in the
build/source
directories, so that my 'make' process can bump the release number every
time
there was a build, without me having to go in and edit the spec file every
time.
sort of the equivalent of:
Release: %{<file_containing_release_number}
Is this possible? how?
TIA
Fulko
