While there have been efforts to compress the header those changes have not (yet) made it upstream as it would make rpm packages completely incompatible with older rpm versions. For limiting the change log entries in the binary packages %_changelog_trimtime can be used that take a unix time stamp as an integer value. This way the whole history is still available in the spec file. Florian -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
