Yes, there are lots of differences between the spec.in and the spec. Seems
that spec.in preserve the @ in file name string.

Yes, I did try the TGZ, it was fine. RPM is the only one got trouble.

I thought to modify or to customize the spec, but gave up as the package is
so large containing thousand lines of directories and files, the size of the
spec is about 1.8 MB. I will be very appreciate if you could make a patch,
or fix it in 2.8.10.3 or 2.8.11.

Thank you very much Erik.

Kind regards.
