Hi,

Was there any testing done to determine how much this script would increase
build times?  I've noticed it takes quite a while on the kernel builds, and
I'm curious what factors influence how long the script takes.  Is it
number of binaries, binary sizes, etc?

Hey Tom,

Unfortunately no, a potential increase in build time was not taken into account at the time of the implementation of this change, as it never came up when considering other buildroot policy scripts as well.

Here is the actual script that runs: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/blob/rpm-4.16.x/scripts/check-rpaths-worker

Could you try and compare two scratch builds? One as is and one by adding %global __brp_check_rpaths %{nil} at the SPEC?

Also adding here for completion that the script will also check for RUNPATH as of rpm 4.17: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/pull/1487/files
