You can't compare RPMs. The newer one uses different compression algorithm than the older one. (RPMPayload has changed from bzip2 to lzma in Alpha 3+.)
yes, I can ;-) I used "rpm2cpio foo.rpm | cpio -idv" in two empty directories, then "diff dir1 dir2". result: only comments/changlog in spec file is different, *.tar.gz and diffs are identical. other possibility would be e.g. rpm -ihv foo1.src.rpm mv /usr/src/packages/SOURCES{,.1} mv /usr/src/packages/SPECS{,.1} mkdir /usr/src/packages/{SOURCES,SPECS} rpm -ihv foo2.src.rpm diff -u /usr/src/packages/SOURCES{1,2} or similar. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
