Yep. It's coded as an rpmbuild option flag, so it can be turned on and
off for different distributions. I had turned it on when re-factoring
the spec file after dash had been put into EPEL, but since dash is the
*only* thing in the client package not provided by the
'rhel-7-server-rpms' channel, I'll turn it off for the final RPM build.
(This will also affect the EL7 server package.)
For now, xymon-client can be spot-checked on systems by picking up the
dash RPM from EPEL, either by using the repo itself or just by
installing the RPM directly. It's at:
https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/7/x86_64/Packages/d/dash-0.5.10.2-1.el7.x86_64.rpm
