Comments are a way to make RPM ignore a line in the spec file. To create a comment, enter an octothorp (#) at the start of the line. Any text following the comment character will be ignored by RPM:
# This is the spec file for playmidi 2.3...
|
Comments can be placed in any section of the spec file.
