+Since rpm 4.19 RPM supports parsing dynamically generated specs. This
+allows the build scripts (**%build** or **%install**) to create parts

+and before **%check**. Because of this they obviously can't contain
+the build scripts but are intended to create sub packages based on the
+build results.
+
+The files need to be placed in the **%{specpartsdir}** (also available
+as **$RPM_SPECPARTS_DIR** in the build scripts) and have a
+**.specpart** postfix. The directory is created by **%setup** in the
+**buildsubdir**. Scripts must fail if it is not present. They should
