Reopen Issue

It would be nice if Fedora Packaging Guidelines could mention that there are specific cmake macros for KF stuff: %cmake_kf6 and %cmake_kf5

I'd also appreciate if we can have a list of macros used for files definitions, like {_kf6_datadir}, {_kf6_includedir}, etc so that I don't have to look into other packages specfile to check if there's a macro for specific directories.

Hello mattia for help you, general macros and language and domain specific ones written mostly in here

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/RPMMacros/

And for kde macros you can take look these links for figure out how they act

kf6 macro - https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/kf6/blob/rawhide/f/macros.kf6
kf5 macro - https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/kf5/blob/rawhide/f/macros.kf5

We don't have a page for people to know about them as "domain specific guidelines" in the packaging guidelines.

That's what this tracks.
