How are you doing that check? Using "$?"? If you use it directly: if grep -q bla file; then .... rpmbuild doesn't exit. If you want to ignore the exit code of a command, then add ||: (ie. or true). Note that will change $? to true. > Is there a way to turn off rpmbuild's abort of the entire build > temporarily while I do the grep? set +e grep set -e -- lfr 0/0
