[opensuse-buildservice] fedora-release in default installs
Hi, Would it be possible to include the fedora-release package in the Fedora repos by default? This would include the /etc/rpm/macros.dist file, which includes the macros %fedora and %fc9 and %fc8. This package is usually installed automatically when installing Fedora through the usual process. It would make it possible to write spec files that build on multiple distros, both inside and outside the Opensuse Build Service. The %fedora_version macro available on OBS is not available on a regular Fedora9 install. Thanks, - Chris --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

Sure, but you need to ask this on the Fedora lists IMHO. Feel free to CC me in case of questions. bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) email: adrian@suse.de --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
