+"-" denotes upstream features we lack
+"+" denotes Mageia features
+
+Those that could be replaced by patches:
+
+- brp-compress:
+ + we default to bzip2 instead of gzip
+- find-debuginfo.sh: (only Mageia pluses)
+ + EXCLUDE_FROM_FULL_STRIP environment variable so that we can exclude files
+ from being completely stripped, but for their debugging symbols.
+ + allow for for only stripping files without creating debug package contents
+ by setting DISABLE_DEBUG environment variable
+ + check real debug directory
+
+Other divergences:
+
+- perl.prov, perl.req: quite some work prior to merge but doable
+- pkgconfigdeps.sh: forked, work needed
