hi
how do you pass vars to rpmbuild for definition? eg
rpmbuild --define \'"${_definition2}"\'
I've been fiddling with ways to escape, but none is fricking working..
I mean, rpmbuild rushes to work(no errors nor failure) so if you try
just the command line do not believe it, because later as it executes
%if you will see process does not see these definitions.
many thanks, L

Normal convention where one wishes to define _foobar as "foo" for example would be: rpmbuild --define '_foobar foo' or generically rpmbuild --define 'SomeVariable SomeValue' Hope that helps
