Resolution: Fixed
> rpmbuild clearing buildroot as part of preinstall
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MRPM-66
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRPM-66
> Project: Mojo RPM Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: rpm
> Affects Versions: 2.0, 2.0.1
> Environment: fedora
> Reporter: Brett Okken
> Assignee: Brett Okken
> Fix For: 2.1
>
> Original Estimate: 0 minutes
> Remaining Estimate: 0 minutes
>
> Newer versions of rpm include a macro for preinstall that clears the
> buildroot. This breaks the rpm plugin since the plugin utilizes the
> configuration to populate the buildroot prior to calling rpmbuild.
> There is some discussion[1] on this issue and possible solutions.
> One workaround is to put '%global __spec_install_pre %{___build_pre}' in the
> spec file. This basically overwrites whatever is in the macro. This seems
> like a reasonable short term workaround, but not a long term solution.
> The approach they took was to populate a "temporary" build root and "mv" it
> to the "real" buildroot as part of %install.
