[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] rpmspec fails to read .spec from stream (stdin) (Issue #4023)

[Michal Domonkos]

dmnks left a comment (rpm-software-management/rpm#4023)

This happens because rpm needs a seek-able file descriptor, and that's apparently not the case when stdin is connected to a pipe. The fact that it still tries to parse the file is not ideal, of course, and one would rather see a warning or error message instead.

This is basically a duplicate of #1926, with a patch attempted (but never materialized) via #1928.

@socketpair, could you please elaborate on the use case where the latter (pipe) is preferable?
