Description of problem: If not defined, kernel_version == last_kernel, but last_kernel command line always runs I'm using rpmspec to list the generated rpms and generating make target on the fly, so running `rpm -qa` on each kmod spec slows down quite a bit the process. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-rpm-macros-205-14.fc36.noarch.rpm How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. have a spec file with kernel_module_package and kernel_version defined Actual results: last_kernel runs because it's a %global Also last_kernel uses `rpm -qa` which is pretty slow Expected results: When kernel_version is defined, last_kernel doesn't run Additional info: We can speed up last_kernel with something like ``` rpm -q --qf '%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}.%{ARCH}\n' kernel-rt-devel kernel-aarch64-devel kernel-devel | /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/rpmsort -r 2>/dev/null | head -n1 ``` We can also move it and make it a %define instead of a %global so it doesn't run when not used
