Hello All!
2013/4/19 Alexey I. Froloff <raorn(a)raorn.name>:
What's the point of using %{macro} form for some, but not all
macros?
That's mostly a cosmetic issue but sometimes this *could* cause a real problem.
Let's say someone defines a macro "_bindirmacro", and actually starts
using it in a spec-files. Then there will be an ambiguity during
substituting %_bindirmacro - is this %{_bindir}macro or
%{_bindirmacro}? Adding brackets will resolve this.
I saw this issue once but didn't remember exact details.
