% Again, let's take systemd macros as an example:
% 1) %systemd_post macro [1] is defined as:
%
% %systemd_post() \
% if [ $1 -eq 1 ] ; then \
% # Initial installation \
% systemctl preset %{?*} >/dev/null 2>&1 || : \
% fi \
% %{nil}
%
% 2) %systemd_user_post macro [2] is defined as:
%
% %systemd_user_post() %systemd_post \\--user \\--global %{?*}
%
...
% [vagrant@localhost ~]$ rpm --eval '%systemd_user_post foo'
% error: Too many levels of recursion in macro expansion. It is likely
% caused by recursive macro declaration.
%
% if [ $1 -eq 1 ] ; then
% # Initial installation
% systemctl preset \--user \--global \--user \--global \--user
% \--global \--user \--global \--user \--global \--user \--global \--user
% \--global \--user \--global \--user \--global \--user \--global \--user
% \--global \--user \--global \--user \--global
%
% The problem is that rpm doesn't properly expand the '%{?*}' macro inside
% the %systemd_user_post into 'foo'.
% Instead, rpm passes it as the third argument to the %systemd_post macro,
% where '%{?*}' is then recursively defined as:
% \--user \--global {%?*}.
%
% This obviously causes the recursive macro expansion error mentioned
% before.
%
% How can I fix the %systemd_user_post macro to properly expand the
% '%{?*}' macro?
In this case inner macro should expand first:
%systemd_user_post() %{expand:%systemd_post \\--user \\--global %%{?*}}
