Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Could you please backport the %bcond macro from RPM 4.18 (which was backported upstream to 4.17) to the rpm in EL 9? It would allow easier imports of Fedora packages to EPEL (or even RHEL) that already use this macro.
The backport could be as simple as adding:
# RPM 4.18+ %%bcond macro backport
# From https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/pull/1918
%bcond() %[ (%2)\
? "%{expand:%%{!?_without_%{1}:%%global with_%{1} 1}}"\
: "%{expand:%%{?_with_%{1}:%%global with_%{1} 1}}"\
]
To the shipped macros.
More complex backport is https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/commit/7b1fc619a5c828828dad7c1f61f525d957b9e2c5
See https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/issues/2042.
Thanks for considering. Please let me know if this has no chance of being backported -- if that is the case, I will add it to epel-rpm-macros.
