Description Bastien Nocera 2005-11-08 15:34:15 UTC 
Build fails after creating the tarball:
sudo rpmbuild -ta dist/dogtail-*.tar.gz
Password:
error: Macro %__os_install_post has empty body
error: line 15: Unknown tag:   [ -x /usr/lib/rpm/brp-python-bytecompile ] &&
/usr/lib/rpm/brp-python-bytecompile \
make: *** [rpm] Error 1

rpm-4.3.3-9_nonptl that comes with RHEL4 doesn't seem to like multi-line macros.
