In this case, the included scripts under %_docdir are not marked as executable; Ralf's comment that bits under %_docdir shouldn't be scanned for dep tracking is with merit, methinks. The real issue here is that this change in behaviour has potential implications for dep/req generation for all packages in Fedora with anything under %_docdir that was previously not scanned. I would think a good resolution for this would either be: 1) revert to the prior behaviour; or 2) allow certain directories to be easily excluded from autodep/prov, and default %_docdir to being excluded. Personally, I'd prefer #2 :) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. -- Fedora Extras Perl SIG http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/SIGs/Perl Fedora-perl-devel-list mailing list Fedora-perl-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-perl-devel-list
