		`In those cases the spec file may define a macro named +++<var>GNAT_add_rpath</var>+++.`
		`The builders will then be allowed to add a runpath in those parts of the spec file where +++<var>GNAT_add_rpath</var>+++ is defined.`

		- Packages that contain Ada code SHOULD run `+%{_rpmconfigdir}/check-rpaths+` as the last thing in the `+%check+` section.
		`- This is a precaution against packaging bugs and toolchain bugs that would cause binaries with runpaths to end up in packages.`
		`- All packages that use +++<var>GNAT_add_rpath</var>+++ MUST do this`
		- (and must therefore have a `+%check+` section).
		`+ NOTE: +++<var>GNAT_add_rpath</var>+++ does not exempt a package from the Packaging Guidelines.`
		`+ link:../#_beware_of_rpath[The policy on runpaths] still applies.`

		`== Devel packages`

Now that check-rpaths is run automatically for all packages (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Broken_RPATH_will_fail_rpmbuild), there is no longer any need to run it explicitly for Ada packages.
