binrpm-pkg creates intermediate build artifacts in $(objtree)/,
but puts only the final .rpm into ${HOME}/rpmbuild/RPMS/${ARCH}/.
It has worked like that since a long time before
probably in order to respect the default of rpmbuild.
If you change this behavior, it should be consistent.
The 'rpmbuild' should be always located in the kernel tree
instead of the user's home directory.
But, doing so might give impact to other users who
rely on having 'rpmbuild' in the home directory.
I have to hear opinions from others
if this change is desired.
Meanwhile, if you are unhappy with that, one solution is to use RPMOPTS.
RPMOPTS exists to tweak the default behavior.
Thanks.
