```
wolfSSL is powered by the wolfCrypt cryptography library. Two versions of
wolfCrypt have been FIPS 140-2 validated (Certificate #2425 and certificate
#3389). FIPS 140-3 validation is in progress. For additional information,
visit the wolfCrypt FIPS FAQ or contact fips at wolfssl.com.
```

note third line with `#`. 

`rpm -qip built-package.rpm` shows:

visit the wolfCrypt FIPS FAQ or contact fips at wolfssl.com.
```

Note missing line. Also note, that `#` on the second line is not interpreted as a comment.

Is it a bug in `rpm` ? missing part in `.spec` format specification? bug in this .spec file exactly ?
