Description Panu Matilainen 2018-01-09 09:44:29 UTC 
Created attachment 1378922 [details]
Remove invalid macro definitions

There are invalid definitions in perl.macros file:
  
%global __perl_provides /usr/lib/rpm/perl.prov
%global __perl_requires /usr/lib/rpm/perl.req

In the macro file context, that means it's trying to define two macros named "global". Fortunately rpm doesn't let it override the builtin %global directive... This has been hiding in there for a better part of a decade but upstream rpm now warns about it:

error: Macro %global is a built-in (%define)
error: Macro %global is a built-in (%define)
warning: file /usr/lib/rpm/macros.d/macros.perl: 2 invalid macro definitions

Attached patch fixes it. Oh and don't as for a PR, I do not get along with Pagure.
Comment 1 Panu Matilainen 2018-01-10 12:02:58 UTC 
BTW, the way deltarpm is designed makes this otherwise fairly harmless thing rather, ehm, conspicuous :)
