Hi,
Dear All,
I'm trying to recompile RHEL packages to i686. Some RHEL source packages has the dist tag el7_0 in it. How do you handle it, when recompiling? Do you keep it by redefining the dist macro? The spec file contains %{dist}, which comes from the /etc/rpm/macros.dist. It contains el7 on RHEL installations.
How should I avoid release mismatch in koji?
Centos project does not use currently koji as the main buildsys.
At work we worked around this issue by defining a buildroot, (e.g : el7_0-build) and a buildsys repository that ship RPMs with the macro file. I ended up having buildsys{major}-{tag}
You will have the same issue if you want to rebuild collection you will need for each tag a different buildroot enabling the {collection}-build. Then you collection*tags number of targets. (yes Redhat does use el6_5 in collections)
I am interested to see how other people deal with that. Fedora don't have this issue, tag is always fixed (fc20, fc21) per buildroot.
Thomas.
