Hi! There is an issue in the behavior of the %setup macro. When combining the -c and -b parameters the -b (drop file before changing into sub dir) acts like -a (drop file after changing into sub dir). This is now fixed in HEAD and will most likely be part of the next RPM release. *Distributions are advised to look through their packages* for instances that rely on this broken behavior (e.g. by using something like grep "%setup" */*.spec | grep -- -c | grep -- -b) and fix them (probably by replacing the -b by -a). We expect there to be very few packages being affected. For example we found only 3 packages in the whole Fedora distribution. See https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/pull/21 for details. Special thanks to Andreas Scherer for recognizing and fixing this.
