Support for long package names #34

Closed dertseha closed 5 years ago

dertseha commented 5 years ago

I wanted to create an RPM with a package name longer than 66 bytes and received an exception (Name exceeds 66 bytes). According to http://ftp.rpm.org/max-rpm/s1-rpm-file-format-rpm-file-format.html (as well as experience with rpmbuild, which I wanted to replace with this plugin), it is possible to store longer names.

Going through the sources, it seems that this is a current limitation of eclipse/packagedrone. I've file an issue there: eclipse/packagedrone#136 .

This issue here to mark the necessary update of the plugin dependencies (and/or update of the plugin, should the responsibility be shifted to the user of packagedrone...) .

Can be ignored, thanks to eclipse/packager#1 . Thank you for your patience!
