It would be even nicer, if the %defined/%undefined macros would work. They exist on SUSE, Fedora, Mandrake.
It would be possible to use %if %{defined suse_version} or %if %{undefined suse_version} which is much better to read, especially as soon as it gets more complicated. They now work. They don't seem to work in every platform -- is that possible?
see http://api.opensuse.org/result/Apache/SUSE_Linux_10.0/libapr1/i586/log
Yes, I said that the backend now understands then. They don't work in SL10.0 as they came with rpm-4.4.2.
We could also define them for the old distributions, but that would mean that the src.rpms wouldn't built anymore. Opinions?
Bad idea IMO :\
I think that rebuilding of src.rpms on "old", pristine SUSE Linux
versions is not a feature that should be discarded.
For the record and/or people joining the thread now, note that the
following, equivalent (albeit more cryptic) notation works with 4.x.x:
%if %{?suse_version:1}0
or
%if %{?!suse_version:1}0
Personally, I would much favor using the notation as above and keeping
the possibility of rebuilding src.rpms on pristine SL <= 10.0. The nicer
notation isn't worth the sacrifice IMO.
What do you guys think ?
cheers
