If I understood the question, I use
fedpkg switch-branch f20 , fedpkg switch-branch master etc and fedpkg
srpm .
The question is related to what Koji does, not what local developers
do with 'fedpkg'.
Just if we have "Source lines might depend on RPM macros which
might
depend on any BuildRequire'd" :)
have you any example , Source lines ? Source lines should be immutable
I remember put a ifdef in a source line for i386 and src.rpm wasn't
equal for i386 and x86_64, but should, because we only export one of
them.
Well something like (made up example):
Source0: %{lang_download_url}/%{name}-%{version}.tar.gz
where %lang_download_url is an RPM macro defined in some
lang-specific package that's not part of a normal build root.
I have no idea if there are packages which do this, which is kind of
my point. We spend probably an extra 10 minutes on each build on a
pretty obscure corner case.
