Hey all, while trying to build some centos-stream packages via git in
COPR, recently I get
error: %patchN is obsolete, use %patch N (or %patch -P N)
aborted builds. I can patch the specs files for all builds but
(question) is there a compat switch to be able to build unmodified
packages/specs coming from centos-stream git?
The target buildroots are centos/rhel, so the compat issue is a layer
before starting the build …
Unfortunately no. Copr always processes the spec files on a stable
Fedora version, which causes trouble for stuff that is too new (e.g.
uses new RPM rawhide-only features) or too old (e.g. uses old RPM EL-
only features).
I created https://github.com/fedora-copr/copr/issues/1315 5 years ago
I am not so involved is this kind of things but I have the impression
that this interruption should not be made in the “build-infra” layer,
but rather in the “application” layer. Why is mock dealing with the
semantics of the spec file, crossing borders without need?
At least it should support 1:1 build components (EL-spec:EL-buildroot,
F42-spec:F42-buildroot). Right now, it is enforcing F42spec-syntax for
EL-buildroots ... Anyway, thanks for the feedback!
