><i> Hello,
</I>><i>
</I>><i> i will regurlarly mail this list when things change regarding
</I>><i> packaging rules in rpm itself.
</I>><i>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> First change, since rpm 4.8.0 you don't need to add the %clean
</I>><i> section, if none is on the spec file, a default one will be used .
</I>
Nice :)
Note to other packagers: Please don't go cleaning (no pun intended) spec
files without thinking. As with all changes to rpm specs (such as the
infamous buildroot change of '09 :D) making the specs clean for one
distro version makes it harder/impossible to backport. This is not
always a problem, so we should try and keep things clean if possible,
but keep in mind that it can take ~2years before such new features can
be used in all packages without worrying (obviously this is the extreme
example - for the vast majority of packages, backporting is not really a
consideration).
All the best
Col
