Description Michel Lind 2008-01-25 22:23:03 UTC 
Description of problem:
The RPM spec template installed by rpmdev-newrpmspec has this line:

BuildRoot:      %{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-root-%(%{__id_u} -n)

Perhaps this should be changed to fit the guideline's preferred style,
BuildRoot:      %(mktemp -ud %{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-XXXXXX)


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rpmdevtools-6.4-1.fc8
Comment 1 Ville Skyttä 2008-01-26 08:50:39 UTC 
I don't think there's any real technical reason to change it, and the current
BuildRoot is both accepted by the guidelines and happens to be my personal
favourite, so I'll keep it as is.
