Indeed.  I played around for a bit last night, to no avail.

It's not clear to me from the rpm documentation, source
comments, or git history whether this is intentional or not.
It may be a case that wasn't tested.  Or it could be
intended that it's turned on at the distro level and can
only be disabled in individual packages.  That would help
improve reproducibility.

I think you'd have to ask the rpm maintainers about this to
be sure.

I'm still not clear on why you want to do this.  I know I
don't need to know that.  I'm curious mostly and knowing
why this is a problem might help someone here see another
way to solve it. :)

Is the goal to build binary, non-noaarch packages on f28
that you can use on older releases -- including the
debuginfo?  That seems unlikely to be ideal, but I'm
guessing at your use-case.

If it's just curiosity, then I understand.  Sorry I can't
help with a better answer in that case.  I can at least
confirm that it doesn't appear to be a macro you can
override short of changing the setting in the system-wide
macros file or individual spec file. :)
