Hello,

How can I make a rpmbuild and keep the compiled files?
BUILD
and
BUIDROOT
are erased

Have you tried "rpmbuild --noclean"?

Alternatively, end the building after the %build stage:

rpmbuild -bc foo.spec

And you will find the compiled files in the build dir. If you want
to keep the installed files, use:

rpmbuild -bi foo.spec

Then find that the buildroot directory has been installed to.

Also notice the --short-circuit commands covered in the manual page
in case you want to modify individual spec file sections and test
the changes quickly.
