From the [Maximum RPM] guide:
The %ghost Directive
As we mentioned in the Section called The %files List, if a file
is specified in the %files list, that file will automatically be
included in the package. There are times when a file should be
owned by the package but not installed - log files and state files
are good examples of cases you might desire this to happen.
The way to achieve this, is to use the %ghost directive. By adding
this directive to the line containing a file, RPM will know about
the ghosted file, but will not add it to the package.
Ghost files are specified using `Type: rpmpack.GhostFile` when
constructing the output package.
The test ensures that we have:
- The target file present in the RPM.
- The specified mode attributes (although not really important,
either).
- An empty file *[1]* in the RPM for the named ghost,
see [google/rpmpack #51].
*[1] Instead of an empty file, no file should be created, but this is
not possible until the upstream issue is resolved.*
