Michael, please calm down. This discussion started because someone
corrected a Red Hat engineer when he used %{buildroot}.
I was just stating that if it wasn't mandatory (what I learned from you
after an ironic remark) than the fedora.us policy should change.
And then suddenly all hell break loose. Sorry, I should have not answered
your messages if I knew what would be the result. Please feel free to
ignore me in future mails, I won't make this mistake twice.
Kind regards,
