Description Jani Välimaa 2024-04-23 15:14:48 CEST

Include macros.build-constraints macro file from Cauldron to mga9 rpm-mageia-setup package.

It'll add %limit_build macro to help to build huge pkgs like webkit2.

Comment 1 Jani Välimaa 2024-04-23 15:25:25 CEST

Fixed in upcoming rpm-mageia-setup-2.71-1.1.mga9

SRPMS:
rpm-mageia-setup-2.71-1.1.mga9

RPMS:
rpm-mageia-setup-2.71-1.1.mga9
rpm-mageia-setup-build-2.71-1.1.mga9

Comment 2 Jani Välimaa 2024-04-23 15:28:15 CEST

Easy test case.

Before update there's no %limit_build macro and 'rpm --eval' output is b0rked.
$ rpm --eval '%{limit_build -m 2048}'
%{limit_build -m 2048}

After update the macro is available and 'rpm --eval' returns sane output depending on used CPU and available memory.
$ rpm --eval '%{limit_build -m 2048}'
-j3
