Description Honza Horak 2013-05-29 14:38:09 UTC
Description of problem:
SCL and core-system values of %_sharedstatedir RPM macros are suspiciously different:

$ grep _sharedstatedir /etc/rpm/*
/etc/rpm/macros.scl:%global _root_sharedstatedir    %{_prefix}/com
/etc/rpm/macros.scl:%global _sharedstatedir        %{_prefix}/com

$ rpm -E '%{_sharedstatedir}'
/var/lib

It results in unexpected value of %{_sharedstatedir} in SCL package:

/opt/rh/<vendor>/<collection>/root/usr/com

instead of

/opt/rh/<vendor>/<collection>/root/var/lib

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
scl-utils-20121110-2.fc19.x86_64

Comment 1 Jan Zeleny 2013-06-04 08:52:45 UTC
Adding Jindrich to CC. Jindro, is the difference intended for some reason or is this a bug?

Comment 2 Jindrich Novy 2013-06-04 15:07:13 UTC
The %_sharedstatedir default comes from /usr/lib/rpm/macros. It is a (very obsolete) default value. Feel free to update/redefine it as needed.
