But ... this is not related to what I am referring to: The more exotic the target are, the more brokenness you'll encounter. E.g. try to implement custom /usr/lib/rpm/<target>/macros for an exotic target ... redhat-rpm-config causes this not to be used. rpm -e redhat-rpm-config magically makes this work ...
