Hi,
when I build RPM
with following sequence
./autogen.sh
./configure
<parameters>
make
rpm-package
it allways calls
./configure script inside rpm packaging with fiexed parameters "--with-ssl=/usr
--with-krb5" (see packaging/rpm/SPECS/wireshark.spec.in)
Yeah, with rpm packaging and autotools, we're loosing a little bit of our time as the rpm package build has to do the configure - since it is compiling the sources from scratch - but before being able to do so, we - as developers - have to create the specfile which is done by the configure process as well. ;) The egg and the chicken ... you know :)
would it be somehow
possible to pass parameters from "./configure <parameters>" called
before "make rpm-package" to ./configure called
inside rpm packaging?
Yes, of course! As ./configure <parameters> is building the specfile, you can modify in such a way, it includes your options. It works the same way as for Makefile.in.
Therefore you would have to modify the configure script in order to use AC_SUBST(CONFIG_PARAM) which will be used to substitute @CONFIG_PARAM@ you would put in the
wireshark.spec.in.
If my exaplanation hasn't been so clear, I guess it will become obvious when taking a look at for example CC_FOR_BUILD in
configure.in, Makefile.in and Makefile.
