One other thing I noticed is the use of `make install-strip`. RPM

Dear friends,
OK, playing with a different spec file (attached), I get the following
error:
$ rpmbuild -ba wbar.spec
Executing(%prep): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.00KzX5
+ umask 022
+ cd /home/maitra/rpmbuild/BUILD
+ cd /home/maitra/rpmbuild/BUILD
+ rm -rf wbar-2.3.0
+ /bin/tar -xf '/home/maitr

./configure
