Does the RPM specfile allow repeating %macro sections?
by Andrew Toskin
Can you repeat %macro sections in the .spec file? For example, I can imagine situations where you might prefer to write most of the %build scriptlet in Lua, but some parts might still be easier as a regular shell script... Is it possible to have both a %build scriptlet in bash and a %build scriptlet in Lua?
Thanks,
~Andrew
