# Since some time the license value 'GPLv3' causes build failures in the openSUSE Build Service
# cf. https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/2289#issuecomment-559713101
# so we use now 'GPL-3.0' that is known to work (at least for now) according to

# At GitHub rear/rear the "ReaR 2.9 release" commit
# https://github.com/rear/rear/commit/e89f78abc92c264647068fe540a40d349d8a5671
# is tagged both 'rear-2.9' and '2.9'
# see https://github.com/rear/rear/tags,
# To achieve a tarball file name rear-2.9.tar.gz when downloading Source0 works by using the download URL
# https://github.com/rear/rear/archive/2.9/rear-2.9.tar.gz
# because the part after the last slash is entirely arbitrary
# so one can have the file named as one wants
# see https://github.com/rear/rear/pull/3389#issuecomment-2632131305

# ReaR contains only bash scripts plus documentation so that on first glance it could be "BuildArch: noarch"
# but actually it is not "noarch" because it only works on those architectures that are explicitly supported.
# Of course the ReaR bash scripts can be installed on any architecture just as any binaries can be installed on any architecture.
# But the meaning of architecture dependent packages should be on what architectures they will work.
# Therefore only those architectures that are actually supported are explicitly listed.
# This avoids that ReaR can be "just installed" on architectures that are actually not supported (e.g. ARM or IBM z Systems):
ExclusiveArch: %ix86 x86_64 ppc ppc64 ppc64le ia64
# Furthermore for some architectures it requires architecture dependent packages (like syslinux for x86 and x86_64)
# so that ReaR must be architecture dependent because ifarch conditions never match in case of "BuildArch: noarch"
# see the GitHub issue https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/629

# In the end this should tell the user that ReaR is known to work only on ix86 x86_64 ppc ppc64 ppc64le ia64
# and on ix86 x86_64 syslinux is explicitly required to make the bootable ISO image
# (in addition to the default installed bootloader grub2) while on ppc ppc64 the
# default installed bootloader yaboot is also used to make the bootable ISO image.

Requires: bc
# Non-mandatory dependencies should be specified as RPM weak dependency via
# Recommends: RPM_package_name
# because missing RPM Recommends do not cause hard errors during installation
# and using Recommends instead of Requires has the additional advantage
# that the user can use ReaR without unneeded hard requirements when
# he does not use functionality in ReaR that uses the hard requirements
# e.g. when he does not need genisoimage or mkisofs to make an ISO image
# (i.e. when he does not use "OUTPUT=ISO"),
# cf. https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/2289
# and https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/3084#issuecomment-2330893133
# When particular functionality in ReaR requires certain programs
# those programs need to be specified in the ReaR scripts in the
# REQUIRED_PROGS config array but not here in the RPM spec file.
# If you require NFS, you may need the below packages
#Requires: nfsclient portmap rpcbind
# We drop LSB requirements because it pulls in too many dependencies
# The OS is hardcoded in /etc/rear/os.conf instead
#Requires: redhat-lsb
# Required for Bacula/MySQL support

# Use xorrisofs by default to create a UEFI-bootable ReaR recovery system ISO image
# see https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/3084#issuecomment-2330996873
# In SLES11 and SLES12 there was
# /usr/bin/genisoimage provided by the genisoimage RPM and there is
# /usr/bin/mkisofs provided by the cdrkit-cdrtools-compat RPM and
# both RPMs are installed by default so we do not need RPM Recommends for them.
# In openSUSE Leap 15 and SLES15 there is no longer /usr/bin/genisoimage
# but there is /usr/bin/mkisofs provided by the mkisofs RPM.
# But we do not need a RPM Recommends for mkisofs because
# in openSUSE Leap 15 and SLES15 there is the better tool /usr/bin/xorrisofs
# which is provided by the xorriso RPM which supports UEFI booting for ISOs
# so with xorrisofs the SUSE specific tool 'ebiso' is no longer needed
# see https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/3084#issuecomment-1833496190
# and xorrisofs is used in ReaR by default as preferred method to make an ISO image.
# In the end we only recommend xorriso for creating (UEFI-bootable) ISOs:

%description
Relax-and-Recover is the leading Open Source disaster recovery and system
migration solution. It comprises of a modular
frame-work and ready-to-go workflows for many common situations to produce
a bootable image and restore from backup using this image. As a benefit,
it allows to restore to different hardware and can therefore be used as
a migration tool as well.
Currently Relax-and-Recover supports various boot media (incl. ISO, PXE,
OBDR tape, USB or eSATA storage), a variety of network protocols (incl.
sftp, ftp, http, nfs, cifs) as well as a multitude of backup strategies
(incl. IBM TSM, MircroFocus Data Protector, Symantec NetBackup, EMC NetWorker,
Bacula, Bareos, BORG, Duplicity, rsync).
Relax-and-Recover was designed to be easy to set up, requires no maintenance
and is there to assist when disaster strikes. Its setup-and-forget nature
removes any excuse for not having a disaster recovery solution implemented.
Professional services and support are available.
