May 1, 2025

In May 2025, delivered a targeted fix to RPM packaging for the ppc64le architecture in wazuh/wazuh, addressing a long-standing bug in debug symbols generation. By adjusting the package generation script and the wazuh-agent.spec, the build process now correctly includes debug information and completes without packaging errors. This improvement reduces build-time failures, enhances post-install debugging for ppc64le deployments, and strengthens the overall reliability of RPM artifacts. Impact: Enables reliable releases and smoother enterprise deployments for users on ppc64le, shortening troubleshooting time and improving maintenance workflows.
