There is (at least for RHEL/FC) %debug_package macro
in the /usr/lib/rpm/macros file. the idea is
following:
all exe/dll in the "main" package are stripped, so
they take less space. If one want debug, one can
install xxx-debug rpm.
xxx-debug.rpm automatically generated, when you build
"regular" rpm.
Now, with _build_fmt_name you force rpm name.
But there are 2 rpm generated: first the normal one
and second xxx-debug. Because you force both rpm have
same name, when debug rpm is created it override
previously created normal one.
This is a reason for misterious behavour.
Solution - use %{NAME} in the build_name_fmt, so
normal and debut rpm can go two the different files,
or disable debug rpm generation altogether
(for example %define debug_package %{nil} - untested)
