Hi,

I've been looking at our upstreamed test [1] for libarchive package and it
started to fail since Fedora 37.

The error is: "gcc: fatal error: environment variable 'RPM_ARCH' not defined
"

Prior to the Fedora 37 the test was passing without any issue.

Did anyone here had a similar problem?
Or could anyone help me find out what has changed so it's causing this
issue?

Thank you so much for your help

Most possibly due to "package note".

`rpmbuild -bc` defines  %{_package_note_flags}, embeds 
"-specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-package-notes"
to LDFLAGS, which needs "RPM_ARCH" environment. During rpmbuild process, this 
environment is provided,
but then later "make" process does not define this automatically (because this 
process is not under
"rpmbuild"), so embedded "-specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-package-notes" 
LDFLAGS complains about
missing environment.

(Yes, I think this is annoying - sometimes rpmbuild fails with some reason, I 
try to fix compilation error
 then try executing "make" locally, then I see linker complains about "'RPM_ARCH' 
not defined"...)

I usually write "%_package_note_flags %nil" to ~/.rpmmacros, not sure if 
rpmbuild command line can
undefine macros.

Regards,
Mamoru
