May I recommend something like the following rust2rpm.toml snippet? [requires] build = [ "hardlink", ] [scripts.install] post = [ "# Hardlink duplicate files to greatly reduce the size of the -devel RPM", "hardlink -t %{buildroot}%{crate_instdir}", ] Note that I didn’t review the result, only verified that it built and the hardlinking had the intended effect. The rust-k8s-openapi-devel-0.22.0-1.fc41.noarch.rpm is around 1 MiB compressed in both cases because the compression algorithm is able to exploit the redundancy in the duplicate files quite effectively, but with hardlinking the extracted size goes from about 50 MB to about 4 MB, which seems worthwhile. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
