Ignoring alerts

Using CLI options

You can provide one more ID's of checks to disable using option -I/--ignore:

perfecto -I PF2,PF12 myapp.spec

All rpmlint checks can be disabled using -nl/--no-lint option or by passing ID LNT0 to -I/--ignore option:

perfecto --no-lint myapp.spec
# or
perfecto -I PF2,PF12,LNT0 myapp.spec

Using ignore directive

Use directive ignore in your spec file to disable any alerts for the next line:

pushd libressl-%{libre_ver}
  mkdir build
  # perfecto:ignore
  ./configure --prefix=$(pwd)/build --enable-shared=no
  %{__make} %{?_smp_mflags}
  %{__make} install
popd

You can provide number of lines to ignore:

# perfecto:ignore 4
Source1:  %{name}-%{version}-1.tar.gz
Source2:  %{name}-%{version}-2.tar.gz
Source3:  %{name}-%{version}-3.tar.gz
Source4:  %{name}-%{version}-4.tar.gz

Note

You can use perfecto:absolve or perfecto:disable as well as perfecto:ignore.

Using target directive

Use directive target in your spec file to disable check on some systems.

The target directive allows defining different types of targets:

• ID of OS: ol, centos, almalinux, fedora…
• ID of OS with major version: ol7, centos7, almalinux8, fedora39…
• Platform ID: el8, el9…
• OS like ID using @ prefix: @rhel, @centos, @fedora…

Example:

################################################################################

# perfecto:target el8 el9 @centos

################################################################################

%{!?_without_check: %define _with_check 1}
