Commit 438c5ffa44 ("rpmball: Adjust to
new rpm, do not require --force") attempted to handle stricter
directory permissions in newer distributions.
This introduced a few issues:
- /boot used to be a constant prior commit
6475d70005 ("use BOOT_DIR as xen.gz
install location"), since this commit the location has to be
referenced via ${BOOT_DIR}
- it assumed the prefix and the various configurable paths match the
glob pattern /*/*/*
Adjust the code to build a filelist on demand and filter directories
from an installed filesystem.rpm. This works on a SUSE system, and
will likely work on a RedHat based system as well.
Take the opportunity to replace the usage of $RPM_BUILD_ROOT with
%buildroot, and use pushd/popd pairs.

rpmbuild -bb spents alot of time in compressing the binaries. Reduce the
turnaround time of 'make rpmball' by using gzip as compression tool.
This reduces the buildtime from 'w9.xzdio'/138 seconds to 'w1.gzdio'/88
seconds in my environment.
The downside is an increased filesize of xen.rpm, 19MB vs. 37MB.

An increasing version and/or release number helps to update existing
packages without --force as in "rpm Uvh --force xen.rpm". Instead its
possible to do "rpm -Fvh *.rpm" to update only already installed
packages.
The usage of --force disables essentials checks such as file conflict
detection. As a result the new xen.rpm may overwrite files owned by
other packages.
With the current way of calculating version-release it is difficult to
get an increasing release number into the spec file. The release is
always zero unless "make make XEN_VENDORVERSION=`date +.%s`" is used,
which has the bad side effect that xen.gz always gets a different
filename every time.
Update mkrpm to recognize PKG_RELEASE=. Its value will be appended to
the Release string. It can be filled with a time stamp, like:
make rpmball PKG_RELEASE="`date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S`"

Even if xen is configured and compiled with different --prefix= so that
it operates entirely below $prefix, the resulting package from 'make
rpmball' is always called "xen.rpm".
Use an environment name to give a different name.
This can be used like this:
suffix=-bugN
prefix=/opx/xen/staging${suffix}
./configure --prefix=${prefix}
make rpmball PKG_SUFFIX=${suffix}
The result will be "xen-bugN.rpm" instead of "xen.rpm". The benefit is that
many xen${suffix}.rpm packages can be installed at the same time.
