a spec file was on previous release, should have release my spec earlier
but my spec file was not able to produce the debuginfo rpm package
though everything else was working fine
i got
+ /usr/lib/rpm/find-debuginfo.sh /h1/rpmbuild/BUILD/ragel-5.19
finish stripping
0 blocks

that last line means that the cpio utility has empty source from the
stripping.
And more crazy if i run the script manually, it work !!

i will try your source rpm and will comment
