Hot on the heels of 4.12.0 cometh dot paperbag, sigh...
The reason for this .1 release is that RPMTAG_ARCHIVESIZE (and
RPMTAG_LONGARCHIVESIZE where relevant) are miscalculated in 4.12.0 and
all its pre-releases: the size is short by cpio trailer. The archive
size value is generally only used for progress meters and the like so
its not very critical issue, but rpm2cpio in recent rpm versions will
exit with an error code on affected packages, and ... well, the value IS
incorrect.
