[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] RFE: make source less special (#539)

[nim-nim]

that's a bit of a strawman, that assumes spec + source is sufficient to reproduce things

In the real life it's been known for a long time that the inputs needed to reproduce is every single package installed in the build env. Starting with the macro packages used.

(just try to rpmbuild -bs a Fedora spec on Suse without redhat-rpm-macros for example)

Given the same set of macros, yes rpmbuild -bs will produce the same srpm, unless you intentionally write logic in your macros that produces variable result. But you can already do that today, without this RFE
