Dear Craig,

We are using ./generate-pdf.sh instead of spec file.

I was asking on the same question some time ago. I was told that this is
intentional. It is quite burden cpu time to build it with every single
commit. Additionally, we run rpmbuild on multiple architectures. The
generate-pdf part takes about same time as rest of build on my desktop.

The pdf is more less text document so we are considering to be not
against the compile everything from source code policy.

There is an bug report on that.
