Error building RPM on master

[James Wing]

I'm having trouble building an RPM on the latest master.  I used to do this
with the command:

mvn clean install -DskipTests -Prpm

But this fails at the nifi-assembly step with an error:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-assembly-plugin:2.5.2:single (make shared
resource) on project nifi-assembly: No formats specified in the execution
parameters or the assembly descriptor. -> [Help 1]

The same "mvn clean install -DskipTests -Prpm" works on the 0.x branch,
resulting in a successful build with an rpm in the nifi-assembly/target
tree.

Am I doing something dumb?

$ mvn -version
Apache Maven 3.3.9 (bb52d8502b132ec0a5a3f4c09453c07478323dc5;

You can point the RPG at any node in the other cluster.  Did that not work
for you?

Thanks
