description #P0 description description Patch1: foo-baz.patch #P1: BUGFIX
#P1 description description description #P1 continued description I suggest to switch the oder. Programmers usually put comments before the relevant code. Then the prefix "Px" would not be needed:
Spec files are not written by programmers. We emphasize all the time that a contributor can help with packaging withoutprogramming knowlegde (of course there is a limit.. but I stay with this statement). Also: multi line comments like this are a pain to parse for statistics... I already gave a link to an overview, where those tags are already parsed.
# INTEGRATION
description # description description Patch0: foo-bar.patch # BUGFIX
# description description description # continued description Patch1: foo-baz.patch BTW: GNOME team already uses similar rules. I am not sure where they are described. For example, see the packages: mc, metacity, gnome-session.
The gnome team uses the documented from found at http://old-en.opensuse.org/Packaging/Patches (the same link as posted in the thread start... the same format suggested there).
