Description ebird98 2010-06-04 14:44:13 UTC

Description of problem:
There is no %clean/%build section in my .spec files.
but rpmbuild deleted my files in the BUILDROOT when I used "rpmbuild -bb".

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
redhat-rpm-config.noarch
rpm.i686            4.8.0-14.fc13   @anaconda-InstallationRepo-201005130056.i386
rpm-build.i686      4.8.0-14.fc13   @anaconda-InstallationRepo-201005130056.i386
rpm-devel.i686      4.8.0-14.fc13   @anaconda-InstallationRepo-201005130056.i386
rpm-libs.i686       4.8.0-14.fc13   @anaconda-InstallationRepo-201005130056.i386
rpm-python.i686     4.8.0-14.fc13   @anaconda-InstallationRepo-201005130056.i386
rpmdevtools.noarch  7.8-1.fc13      @anaconda-InstallationRepo-201005130056.i386


Steps to Reproduce:
1.rpmbuild a binary RPM. (BIN files has build already, so use "-bb" switch)
  
Actual results:
All of the files packaged has been deleted.

Expected results:
Should not delete any files, when NO %clean/%build section in my .spec file.

Yes. BUILDROOT is now configured and managed as a build system
element, not a per-package option.

Running "rpmbuild -bi foo.spec" will build and install (but not remove)
the files in the buildroot.

This is indeed the intended behavior and not a bug.

Comment 3 ebird98 2010-06-08 01:47:29 UTC

Thanks，I got a way to KEEP the files.:)
So different between 4.8 and 4.6...
