The origin for this problem is rpm bogusly trying to manipulate target files. The origin is lurking deeply inside of %__os_install_post. It invokes brp-strip on files, it should not strip. I am working around this issue by using customized versions of the scripts being invoked in __os_install_post. > PS: is there someone else interested in a linux->windows cross compiler > SRPM ? I am not sure Fedora should support toolchains endorsing proprietary OSes (Though MinGW is free, the OS underneath is not). I.e. from a Fedora focused POV all such a cross compiler does is "helping your enemy".
