Directives For the %files list<\/a><\/p>\n
\r\nThe %dir Directive\r\n\r\nAs we mentioned in the Section called The %files List, if a\r\ndirectory is specified in the %files list, the contents of\r\nthat directory, and the contents of every directory under it,\r\nwill automatically be included in the package.\r\n\r\nWhile this feature can be handy (assuming you are sure that\r\nevery file under the directory should be packaged) there are\r\ntimes when this could be a problem.\r\n\r\nThe way to get around this, is to use the %dir directive. \r\n<\/pre>\n

What does %defattr mean in RPM spec files?<\/a><\/p>\n
\r\nThe %defattr Directive\r\n  The %defattr directive allows setting of default attributes for files and directives.\r\n  The %defattr has a similar format to the %attr directive:\r\n    1. The default permissions, or "mode" for files.\r\n    2. The default user id.\r\n    3. The default group id.\r\n    4. The default permissions, or "mode" for directories.\r\n\r\n  The %attr directive has the following format:\r\n    %defattr(file mode, user, group, dir mode)\r\n<\/pre>\n
