I am trying to build an rpm using the rpmbuild tool. I have source code which build binaries around 30 GB. This software for which I am making the rpm has dozens of executables. When I copy only the binaries of a single executable (Eg. init) my rpm builds successfully. But when I dump the entire build to the rpm, rpmbuild does everything but gives a seg fault in the end.
Here is my spec file:
# This is a sample spec file for wget
%define _topdir /root/mywget
%define name source
%define release 1
%define version 1.12
%define _builddir /root/mywget/BUILD/glenlivet
%define _buildrootdir /root/mywget/BUILDROOT
%define _buildroot /root/mywget/BUILDROOT
%define _sourcedir /root/mywget/SOURCES
BuildRoot: %{_buildroot}

The GNU sample program downloads files from the Internet using the command-line.
%prep
%setup -q -n glenlivet
%build
cd %{_builddir}
make all
%install
rm -rf %{_buildrootdir}
mkdir -p %{_buildrootdir}/bin
cp -p -r %{_builddir}/build/obj-x64/* %{_buildrootdir}/bin/
%files
%defattr(-,root,root)
/bin/*
If I only copy some of the binaries (let say one utility and its dependent binaries) it works fine. But when I try to copy the entire build, I get a seg fault. I get the seg fault after rpmbuild has executed these sections:
%prep
%build
%install
rpmbuild also processes my source file.

Any clue what wrong is going on or where does rpmbuild fails? Thanks in advance
