I would like to avoid breaking the build in this case. I hoped there was some macro, e.g. named exclude_empty, that would allow to exclude files only if they are empty. This is what I came up with: %define exclude_empty() %(test -s %1 && echo %1) It should then be used somehow like this: %files %doc %exclude_empty TODO But it seems to always exclude the file.
