Maintaining a single spec with disttag conditionals is great, and makes the world a lot easier.... *if* you are maintaining the same source version of the package across all distros. Once you split source versions (as Steve said generally with rawhide)... its not really practical to maintain a single spec and you end up with multiple buildroots/specs. --- derks -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
