Hello. What's the proper way to remove *all symbols* from ELF binaries when building packages with rpmbuild on CentOS? Seems that an out of the box rpmbuild install only discards debugging symbols (strip -g). That's the default configuration for %__os_install_post on CentOS, the step in charge on stripping binaries: $ rpmbuild --showrc (..) -14: __os_install_post %{_rpmconfigdir}/brp-compress %{_rpmconfigdir}/brp-strip %{_rpmconfigdir}/brp-strip-static-archive %{_rpmconfigdir}/brp-strip-comment-note ELF b...

...them to the list of "Requires", which is not desirable in this case. My question therefore is - how can I tell rpmbuild to stop automatically creating a dependency list? The best I can come up with at the moment is to add the following to my ~/.rpmmacros (line numbers added by me): [1] %__os_install_post /usr/lib/rpm/brp-strip-comment-note [2] %__find_requires /bin/true [3] %__perl_requires /bin/true So: [1] - Stop it stripping already stripped binaries. [2] and [3] - This stops it doing the automatic dependency list creation. This seems a bit heavy handed though, is there another, cleaner...

...mpletely using rpmbuild -ba mathematica.spec an RPM is created but when I try and install this it fails because the MD5 Sum of the file mentioned above is not correct. Anyone have any idea how to stop the prelink change that is causing the problem ? I assume its a directive similiar to %define __os_install_post %{nil} but I'm unsure exactly what I should be turning off. Thanks Clint

This is not specifically a CentOS question, but I am creating RPMS for CentOS 6 from some CRAN tarballs. I run R2spec -s tarball to create a spec file, and most of the time it works ok, but sometimes (RPostgresSQL, Rcpp for example) the package has test or example programs that start with #!/usr/bin/r with lower case r, and the resulting package then winds up with a dependency on /usr/bin/r,
