I have checked my profile and I had the name listed
as A.A., I don't know where this is coming from.
Is there any nice way in a .spec file to tell rpmbuild not to call
brp-java-repack-jars? Some Web Searching indicates that most people
just hack the script. Is there a better way ?
I've just started building RPMs myself, so I'm curious ... why would you
want to not call brp-java-repack-jars?

I've had good results using Clonezilla for complete backup of OS+data.
It backs up entire disks/partitions, so includes everything including
configuration files, tweaks etc. It is fast compared to something like
Ghost, and can backup to devices (USB stick or external HDD) or a
network location.
Yep, and USB external hard drives are even cheaper per GB.
Here in Australia an 8G USB stick retails for around AU$50, while a 250G
2.5" external HDD is around AU$140 by comparison (about 1/10 the cost
per GB).
