+      body: |
+        rpmbuild strips executables by default when generating an rpm packge.
+        This was causing the JavaScript code bundled in the etcher-util file
+        to be removed, causing "Pkg: Error reading from file." whenever
+        etcher-util was called.
+
+        This in turn caused balena-etcher to generate the error message
+        `Error: (0, h.requestMetadata) is not a function` when attempting
+        to write an SD card.
+
+        This fixes the issue for RPM builds by replacing the `strip` command
+        with `true` so that rpmbuild no longer strips the executables and
+        the embeded code stays intact.
+
