This problem appears rather pathological. I don't believe that your
patch is the Right Thing To Do since find-* should have *no* side
effects.
BTW in rpm-3.0.4 there are provisions to append "build root
policies" such as your "chmod +r" to the end of the %install
section using a %__spec_install_post macro. We're currently
compressing man pages and stripping binaries auto-magically
using (in /etc/rpm/macros or some such)
%__spec_install_post \
/usr/lib/rpm/brp-compress \
/usr/lib/rpm/brp-strip \
/usr/lib/rpm/brp-strip-comment-note \
%{nil}

Some packages install executables that have read permissions turned off. An example would be NEC's SOCKSV5 proxy, which installs the following in bindir: [mrsam@gwl bin]$ ls -al total 793 drwxr-xr-x 2 mrsam users 1024 Feb 13 12:03 . drwxr-xr-x 6 mrsam users 1024 Feb 13 12:03 .. ---x--x--x 1 mrsam users 112820 Feb 13 12:03 rarchie ---x--x--x 1 mrsam users 77060 Feb 13 12:03 rfinger ---x--x--x 1 mrsam users 135612 Feb 13 12:03 rftp ---x--x--x 1 mrsam users 77300 Feb 13 12:03 rping ---x--x--x 1 mrsam users 135552 Feb 13 12:03 rtelnet ---x--x--x 1 mrsam users 78388 Feb 13 12:03 rtraceroute -rwxr-xr-x 1 mrsam users 1202 Feb 13 12:03 runsocks ---x--x--x 1 mrsam users 77092 Feb 13 12:03 rwhois -rwxr-xr-x 1 mrsam users 100108 Feb 13 12:03 socks5 -rwxr-xr-x 1 mrsam users 674 Feb 13 12:03 stopsocks Unless this is built as root, find-requires fails because it cannot read these.
