No, do it differently. Simply name the cricket tarball As source and let rpm unpack it. I'd recommend repacking it as bz2 with bznew as that would save space. And then do in %install:
I did the following: # bznew -K cricket-1.0.5.tar.gz -> output cricket-1.0.5.tar.bz2 I attached cricket-1.0.5.tar.bz2 to the project. Question:- How do I detatch cricket-1.0.5.tar.bz2 in the project to the /opt directory and unpack it. Also can these commands go in the %install section ? # cd /opt # /bin/ln -s cricket-1.0.5 cricket specfile ->https://build.opensuse.org/package/edit_file?file=cricket-1-0-5.spec&package... project -> https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=cricket-1-0-5&project=home%3...
