The build failed because now there are some checks which prevents
uploading "erroneus" packages. Check for empty %post and %preun is one
of those added checks. There's no such macro as %update_scrollkeeper
(or  %clean_scrollkeeper) so that's why your build failed. See 'rpm
--eval %update_scrollkeeper'
