Description Sergey Vlasov 2003-06-04 18:09:46 MSD

When the %files section in spec contains %exclude, the Size: field in the binary package is wrong - apparently rpmbuild adds the excluded file size instead of subtracting it.

See the attached package for an example.

Bug was even worse compared to reported. 
 
Fixed in rpm-build-4.0.4-alt26

Comment 2 at@altlinux.org 2008-06-15 04:21:20 MSD

This change apparently broke hardlink size count.

$ rpmquery --qf '%{SIZE}\n' git-core

Fixed in rpm-4.0.4-alt95 (Sisyphus and branch 4.1), backported to rpm-4.0.4-alt77.M40.2 (branch 4.0).  Also fixed in rpm5.org.
