Agreed, it seems like busy work to me that adds very little value to anyone
familiar with Java packages. Wouldn't it be easier to change the whatever
tool is generating this report to accommodate for this? "If package invokes
%mvn_build then don't expect there to be a %check section" seems like a
reasonable heuristic to me.
