There's a hack to disable the %check section (if needed):
Put this in some macro file (e.g. /etc/rpm/macros or ~/.rpmmacros)
%check %%check \\
exit 0
One can also do on the CLI using --define, but multiline escaped
macro definitions are likely easier done in some macros file.
One can also disable %check (or any other section of a build)
by overloading the scriptlet templates to put "exit 0" into the
pre template.
E.g. here's the templates for %check (all stubbed with defaults):
%__spec_check_shell %{___build_shell}
%__spec_check_args %{___build_args}
%__spec_check_cmd %{___build_cmd}
%__spec_check_pre %{___build_pre}
%__spec_check_body %{___build_body}
%__spec_check_post %{___build_post}
%__spec_check_template #!%{__spec_check_shell}\
%{__spec_check_pre}\
%{nil}
So one can bury an "exit 0" into the %check pre section with this
config:
%__spec_check_pre exit 0
How a build system is configured (or rpmbuild arguments used when
invoking)
is what makes the "reproducible build" lie pleasant.
If only 41 (~3.5%) package build failures, that's not too shabby.
