Description Rémi Verschelde 2017-09-20 19:16:11 CEST 
Our rpm-mageia-setup redefined __debug_info_post, shadowing the upstream RPM one which is slightly more complete, as explained in this thread [0].

This update removes the custom Mageia definition [1], adding support for more options via the upstream definition:

__debug_install_post       
   %{_rpmconfigdir}/find-debuginfo.sh %{?_missing_build_ids_terminate_build:--strict-build-id} %{?_include_minidebuginfo:-m} %{?_find_debuginfo_dwz_opts} %{?_find_debuginfo_opts} "%{_builddir}/%{?buildsubdir}"
%{nil}

(_missing_build_ids_terminate_build and _find_debuginfo_opts are new)

This allows in particular to remove a hack we had to use when syncing rust packaging with Fedora, since they use _find_debuginfo_opts but we only supported _find_debuginfo_dwz_opts up to now [2].

Advisory:
=========

Updated rpm-mageia-setup removes redundant macro, unshadowing upstream RPM one

  The rpm-mageia-setup package used to redefine the __debug_info_post macro,
  shadowing the upstream RPM one which supports more options and has the same
  effect by default.

  This update removes the redundant macro redefinition, effectively unshadowing
  the original macro.

Comment 1 Rémi Verschelde 2017-09-20 19:21:05 CEST 
Advisory uploaded (and fixed, it's __debug_install_post and not __debug_info_post as written in comment 0).

Comment 2 Rémi Verschelde 2017-09-20 19:23:39 CEST 
Installed locally on Mageia 6 x86_64, confirmed that `rpm --showrc` now lists:

-14: __debug_install_post       
   %{_rpmconfigdir}/find-debuginfo.sh %{?_missing_build_ids_terminate_build:--strict-build-id} %{?_include_minidebuginfo:-m} %{?_find_debuginfo_dwz_opts} %{?_find_debuginfo_opts} "%{_builddir}/%{?buildsubdir}"
%{nil}

So the upstream options are now available, as needed.

Validating.
