--- Comment #12 from Neal Gompa ngompa13@gmail.com --- Hmm, it seems `%rpmmacrodir` is defined in redhat-rpm-config as a legacy macro: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/redhat-rpm-config/blob/master/f/macros.fe...

- The %build section sets up %_builddir and %_buildsubdir, so don't drop
it, just put a comment indicating there's nothing to do there.
That is interesting I wonder how that works. I can use %{_builddir} during %prep. The %{buildsubdir} is directory where compiled things get save ?
Among other things, if a macro uses it, yes. For example, the debuginfo macros use it for a location to split symbols out.
