#255 Recognize %autorelease outside the Release: field
Closed: Fixed by nphilipp. Opened by nphilipp.

Closed: Fixed
Reopen Issue

Story

As a package maintainer,
I want to be able to use %autorelease anywhere in my spec file,
so I can encode the (E)VR of the base package in sub packages with different version cadences.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Use of the %autorelease macro is recognized anywhere in the spec file …
  • … and such spec files are processed accordingly.

Background

Right now, %autorelease is only recognized inside the Release: field, but this prevents its indirect use through intermediate macros. See #248, #249.
