New subject: [opensuse-packaging] Re: Problem on %doc -> %license macro for 0%{?OS_version}

6 Nov 2018

      Hello!

Need to have package for wide row of RPM-distros, which such scheme:

1) Copy LICENSE file to %%doc for:
- SLE 12 SP2 and lower
- openSUSE Leap 42.2 and lower
- RHEL 6 and lower
- CentOS 6 and lower
- Scientific Linux 6 and lower

2) Copy LICENSE file to %%license for:
- SLE 12 SP3 and higher
- openSUSE Leap 42.3 and higher
- RHEL 7 and higher
- CentOS 7 and higher
- Scientific Linux 7 and higher

due to these guidelines:

Fedora: [0] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:LicensingGuidelines?rd=Packaging/Li...

openSUSE: [1] https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Specfile_guidelines#License_files

To detect OS-es I use table from [2]
https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Build_Service_cross_distribution_howto

Initially I had such construction in spec:

%if ( 0%{?sles_version} <= 120200 && !0%{?is_opensuse} ) || (
0%{?sles_version} <= 120200 && 0%{?is_opensuse} ) || 0%{?rhel_version}
<= 600 || 0%{?centos_version} <= 600 || 0%{?scientificlinux_version}
<= 600
%doc LICENSE LICENSE.GPL2 README.md
%else
%doc README.md
%license LICENSE LICENSE.GPL2
%endif

Here RPMs are OK to be built, but on openSUSE 42.3 both of LICENSE
LICENSE.GPL2 files were put to %doc (/usr/share/doc/packages/) instead
of %license (/usr/share/licenses).

If to use

%if ( 0%{?sles_version} < 120300 && !0%{?is_opensuse} ) || (
0%{?sles_version} < 120300 && 0%{?is_opensuse} ) || 0%{?rhel_version}
< 700 || 0%{?centos_version} < 700 || 0%{?scientificlinux_version} <
700
%doc LICENSE LICENSE.GPL2 README.md
%else
%doc README.md
%license LICENSE LICENSE.GPL2
%endif

this doesn't help -- on openSUSE 42.3 both of LICENSE LICENSE.GPL2
files were put to %doc (/usr/share/doc/packages/) instead of %license
(/usr/share/licenses).

Even using 0%{?suse_version} macro instead of 0%{?sles_version} also
doesn't help.

Where am I wrong here? Please, give a hint how to have scheme
mentioned in 1) and 2).

[0] and [1] doesn't have explicit restriction on using <= sign. Can it
be is use generally for 0%{?OS_version} macro?

Thanks!
