Package: rpm
Version: 4.7.0-9
Severity: important
Tags: patch
In documentation is stated that the macros file is placed at /etc/rpm/macros
but due a missing configure flag (--sysconfdir) the built binaries look at
/usr/etc/rpm/macros
Setting sysconfdir to /etc when configuring should be enough to fix this.
