To be tried. However, I've been told [1] %define __os_install_post ./brp-custom-compress; ./brp-custom-strip was working, but haven't had a chance this try it yet. Another obvious work-around would be not to use __os_install_post and to explicitly call the brp* scripts: %define __os_install_post %{nil} ... %install ... ./brp-custom-compress ./brp-custom-strip Does anybody recall since when (which rpm version, which RHL/FC release) this issue had been fixed? Ralf [1] I don't have rh7.3, I just received a report from a rh7.3 user who is trying to build one of my rpms. -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
