Hi folks,
Calculating the build order out of a set of source RPMs is now possible (even with BuildRequires from sources which are not included). The little trick rpm -E "`cat foo.spec`" did it. Special thanks to Jeff J.! But I have to shorten the output to the essentials because 'rpm' is crashing when the output of the spec file is too long.
There's a dinky standalone utility that will do the expansion w/o being limited by rpm's fixed buffer size in mezzanine.
Find Michael Jennings (who wrote mezzanine) on #cAos or @rpm5.org.
