I did not notice for sure, try to understand how rpmbuild works * unpack the sources * run configure * make install in the buildroot * pack the RPM is all files are existing and listed in the %files section and that is why running as root makes pretty no sense / from the view of the build-rpcoess is the clean buildroot under rpmbuild and anything which tries ot break out there is simply a bug which must not happen so if all is working normal there is no need for root permissions and if there comes a "permission denied" something was not normal and thank god for not allow whatever it tried to run
