PreupgradeAssistant contents Packaging guidelines

Every Preupgrade Assistant content package must start with preupgrade-assistant-contents which is followed by original package name all lowercase.

For example preupgrade assistant package name mariadb will be named preupgrade-assistant-contents-mariadb in the SPEC file.

Dependencies

• All packages must Require preupgrade-assistant.
• All packages must have BuildRequires: preupgrade-assistant-devel. (for macros and checking)

Architecture
