So how can he get his aarch64 CentOS 7 to support this macro, to enable rebuilds without modifying the .spec file?

Hello, A friend of mine is rebuilding an EPEL package (namely llvm9.0) from source for CentOS 7 on aarch64. The aarch64 build is not in the EPEL repo, probably because RHEL7 for aarch64 is out of support. WIth an unmodified .spec file, he gets a message that the  %ldconfig_scriptlets macro is unknown, or else he gets it built but not linked and so not running. He had to add "%post -p /sbin/ldconfig" and rebuild. I did find the wiki page about this macro at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Removing_ldconfig_scriptlets but I could not work out which package should pull this feature into CentOS 7. So how can he get his aarch64 CentOS 7 to support this macro, to enable rebuilds without modifying the .spec file? (Ideally he wants to be able to rebuild for Russian RHEL7 derivatives too).

Possibly also on EPEL 8. But it is required on EPEL 7." However, on his CentOS 7 the macro *does not work*. What package does he need to update/rebuild so the macro works?

This resolves the issue. May I ask you to add this information to  https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Removing_ldconfig_scriptlets  ? I tried, but I am having problems with the Fedora Project website; it gives an Error 500 when I try to complete the FPCA.
