Fixed in rpm-3.0.4-0.16 (with apologies for the long delay). |
Setting the buildroot path via command line option --buildroot or rpmrc file does not work as expected. As far as I can see the entry in the rpmrc file is completely ignored. When using the --buildroot switch together with badly formatted directory names (/x//y/z/) the first characters from filenames found in the resulting rpm package are removed. (usr/bin/xx instead of /usr/bin/xx) This happens when directories are specified in the %files section.
