It would also be bureaucratically simpler to just make it a sub-RPM of 'qemu' rather than a standalone qemu-srpm-macros package, but given the frequency of changes that's not a massive pain, given that virt maintainers would still own it. > > > > > > Given that this going to change quite rarely, you could stick it > > > directly into redhat-rpm-config as well, similar to what we have today > > > with /usr/lib/rpm/macros.d/macros.valgrind-srpm. > > > > > > > Please don't.

Not because it is a problem in Fedora, but because it will cause us pain downstream to deal with RHEL development process bureaucracy to commit changes into a package we don't directly own as virt maintainers.
