Hello Richard!
Ocaml solved my problem. Thank you so much :)
There are many unpackaged ocaml files created outside the BUILDROOT. Will removing them
harm the working of the package?
error: Installed (but unpackaged) file(s) found:
/usr/lib64/ocaml/guestfs/META
/usr/lib64/ocaml/guestfs/guestfs.cmi
/usr/lib64/ocaml/guestfs/guestfs.cmx
/usr/lib64/ocaml/guestfs/guestfs.mli
/usr/lib64/ocaml/guestfs/libmlguestfs.a

/usr/lib64/ocaml/guestfs/mlguestfs.cma

/usr/lib64/ocaml/stublibs/dllmlguestfs.so
/usr/lib64/ocaml/stublibs/dllmlguestfs.so.owner
Those particular files are the OCaml bindings. They are only needed
if you intend to write a brand new program in OCaml using guestfs
(http://libguestfs.org/guestfs-ocaml.3.html). Otherwise you can
remove them without any ill effect.
However I'm surprised that whatever spec file you are using doesn't
find and package those files into two ocaml-libguestfs* subpackages.
