I'm reworking my plplot.spec and seeing the following build failure:

Processing files: plplot-5.9.0-2.svn8985.fc11
+ exit 0
error: File must begin with "/": %{python_sitearch}/_plplotcmodule.so

spec has:

%{!?python_sitearch: %define python_sitearch %(%{__python} -c "from
distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; print get_python_lib(1)")}


at the top, and then:

%files
%defattr(-,root,root,-)
%{_docdir}/plplot-%{version}/
%{_bindir}/plm2gif
%{_bindir}/plpr
%{_bindir}/pltek
%{_bindir}/pstex2eps
%{python_sitearch}/_plplotcmodule.so

This has always worked before.

Problems started showing up after I started using %bcond_without
directives. Any weirdness to watch out for there?


This is all in plplot/devel cvs. scratch build:

You can try adding %trace to the top of the spec file and see if
everything is expanding the way you'd expect.

Take out the space between : %define

Changing to %{!?python_sitearch: %global python_....}
works?

That's the ticket. Some rpm change I guess I didn't quite pick up on...

Thank you!

Alternatively, simply override it without any nested macros:

%define python_sitearch %(%{__python} -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; print get_python_lib(1)")

--
Nested macro usage like %{!?foo: %define foo ...} is error-prone anyway.
It quickly leads to confusing scenarios in spec files where you check for
%!?foo in several places, but that would fail if the redefinition were
global implicitly.

Well, it's take directly from:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Python#System_Architecture

If that doesn't work any more, it seems many spec templates may need to
get changed.


I also count 1089 occurrences of this construct in current fedora spec
files.

I've searched a bit:
