This is done to avoid troubles with %lang files listed as duplicated.
1. It gets rid of a warning
2. It fixes a problem described in:
http://lists.rpm.org/pipermail/rpm-list/2020-November/002041.html
This is a backwards incompatible change,
packages that rename or remove the installed files after %pyproject_install
might no longer be compatible with %pyproject_save_files.
Fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1868346
- Explain what "provisional" means
- Say what kinds of projects the macros handle
- Tell people to BuidRequire python*-devel
- Say %pyproject_buildrequires is needed for the other macros
- Note that %pyproject_buildrequires generates `exit 11` messages
- Note that most buildsystems have prepare-metadata-for-build-wheel
This macro save generates file section to %pyproject_files. It should
simplify %files section and allow to build by some automatic machinery
Supposed use case in Fedora:
%install
%pyproject_install
%pyproject_save_files requests _requests
%files -n python3-requests -f %{pyproject_files}
%doc README.rst
%license LICENSE
Automatic build of arbitrary packages (e.g. in Copr):
%install
%pyproject_install
%pyproject_save_files * +bindir // save all modules with executables
%files -n python3-requests -f %{pyproject_files}
