+
+For information.
+
+Starting from rpm-3.0.4-0.2mdk, the spec-helper package must be
+installed as a dependency of the rpm-build package.
+
+The spec-helper script is called automatically at the end of the
+%install section to compress info and man pages, strip files and
+remove backup files from the $RPM_BUILD_ROOT dir. The %install section
+can be cleaned off this tasks but the %files section about man and
+info pages must be specified without the .bz2 extension but with an *
+instead. The goal is to have vendor neutral spec files.
+
+Example:
+
+%files
+/usr/man/man1/alias.1*
+
+and not
+
+%files
+/usr/man/man1/alias.1.bz2
