245	Provide os2-rpm package	dmik		"Currently, we put all OS/2 platform specific stuff right in the RPM source tree (and binary distribution) itself. But this doesn't look correct as this stuff is highly platform-specific and RPM per se should be kept as generic as possible.

Fedora does the same by providing the `redhat-rpmbuild-macros` package (check http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/redhat-rpm-config.git/tree/).

This can be rather easily implemented by putting all platform-specific macros (and scripts) to `/@unixroot/etc/rpm` where they are automatically picked up by RPM as it's a standard directory for searching platform-specific macros. This directory may also be used by other packages to extend RPM functionality without the need to modify RPM itself.

Current candidates for inclusion in `os2-rpm-config`:
- entire `platform/*-os2-*/macros` tree
- `wps_*` and `warpin_*` macros (and their respective scripts, `wps-object` and `warping-conflicts`)
- other `os2_*` macros (including `cube`, the CONFIG.SYS processor)
- `brp-strip.os2` script
- `find-legacy-runtime.sh` script

Note that when moving scripts to `/etc/rpm`, their path in macros should be updated accordingly."	enhancement	closed	blocker		rpm		highest	fixed
