Description Toralf 2001-02-14 09:35:58 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.16-22 i686)


Using BuildArch: or BuildArchitectures: tag in spec file changes the rpm
query output in the following way:
1. When the spec file contains several packages, 'rpm -q --specfile'
   lists only the name/version of the main one. Expanded names of the
   sub packages are not included like they are when "BuildArch" is not
   used.
2. 'rpm -q --queryformat "%{ARCH}"' returns "(none)" rather than the
   real build architecture.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Take a simple spec file containing at least one %package directive,  but
no BuildArch:
2.rpm -q --specfile <spec file name>
3.Insert 'BuildArch: noarch' in package headers.
4.Repeat 2.

Comment 2 Tony Clayton 2001-04-18 21:07:46 UTC
I am having similar problems.  With 'BuildArchitecture: noarch', the ouput of 
rpm -q --changelog --specfile <file> 
returns nothing.


Comment 3 Jeff Johnson 2001-05-06 19:39:46 UTC
Fixed in rpm-4.0.3-0.15 (be careful if you upgrade, there's still known bugs for
rpm > 4.0.3-0.6, you might want to fish out the changes in build/parseSpec.c
and apply to rpm-4.0.2 if needed).
