I do a relative symlink in the post scriptlet. The problem is when I install the package with a relocation, rpm looks for a dependence on the linked file in its original directory. Moreover, at install time, I run rpm from a Shell script which sets environment variables that I use in the scriptlets, especially to chown delivered files to a user known at this time only. That’s why those scriptlets cannot be ran at build time.
Does I need just to set %__scriptlet_requires to %{nil} to disable it ?

Hi, Building a rpm package, I noticed that, right now, installation scriptlets are run at build time, during the "processing files" step. It seems to me having seen on Internet that this is for finding required files/commands used in those scriptlets.
There is a means to automate scriptlet dependencies using bash --rpm-requires.
In rpm-4.4.4 (and later) the mechanism for automating has been added #------------------------------------------------------------------------ # executable(...) configuration. # # Path to scripts to autogenerate executable(foo) script dependencies, # # Note: Used iff _use_internal_dependency_generator is non-zero. The # helpers are also used by %{_rpmhome}/rpmdeps {--provides|--requires}. #%__executable_provides %{_rpmhome}/executabledeps.sh --provides #%__executable_requires %{_rpmhome}/executabledeps.sh --requires %__scriptlet_requires /bin/bash --rpm-requires
Tokens in an executable context are parsed as dependencies. E.g. this scriptlet rm -rf %{buildroot} will generate Requires: executable(rm) and an executable called "rm" will be checked for on PATH during installation during dependency checking, just like which(1) or bash(1) would do.
Meanwhile, note that bash --rpm-requires is not perfect. The patch to bash needs to be improved before the mechanism is 100% reliable.
I'm not sure what you ask. You can disable the mechanism on the build system, yes. But the mechanism is entirely done on the install, not the build, platform if used correctly.
