--- Comment #26 from Nathanael Noblet nathanael@gnat.ca 2009-11-19 00:36:24 EDT --- I've tried removing the # make some dirs parts so for example I now have
%{__install} -Dp -m 644 src/tools.mysql_drv/*.sql.gz $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_datadir}/%{name}/sql-scripts/mysql/
But it fails
/usr/bin/install: target `/home/gnat/Projects/Packages/BUILDROOT/dspam-3.9.0-0.6.BETA4.fc12.x86_64/usr/share/dspam/sql-scripts/mysql/' is not a directory: No such file or directory
I've tried looking at man install, so I'm a bit confused the -D should work should it not?
About the BETA release. 3.8.0 is REALLY old, and upstream has basically taken 3.8 and applied a bunch of fixes and community patches. Upstream had gone dead twice in the last 3 years. The original author had his software purchased by a company. That company did nothing, and released it fully open to the community that wanted to continue development. Packaging 3.8 would be a waste of time as 3.9 should be out soon enough, and is really 3.8 + fixes.
