Hi Alessandro,
The problem is related to erroneous /etc/rpm/macros.jpackage installed by the
new jpackage-utils RPM. Simple fix is to replace the last three lines of this file
EOF\
chmod 755 $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_bindir}/%5
%{nil}
with a simple
EOF
That did the trick for us... However, rolling back is probably better option.
I suppose this will be fixed in the next release of jpackage-utils...
Best regards, Antun
