Hiyas,

are there some best practices or some secret macros I can redifine to use a
lzma compressed tarball as Source0 for Fedora 8+ specs?
It would help if I could pass --use-compress-program=lzma to the tar
commandline that %setup uses.

Regards,
Till

Use %setup -T and call the unpacking command yourself?

%setup -c -q -T

and extract %{SOURCE0} manually. Does that help, too?

Thanks, the best solution I can think of with this %setup commandline is this:

%setup -q -c -T
lzma -c -d %SOURCE0 | tar -xvvf - -C ..

Without the -C .. tar will create a new directory within the extracted source
directory, e.g. foo-1.2/foo-1.2 which will break the remainder of the spec.
