Give him time to reply with a full listing of the buildroot and rpmbuild output, so the problem can be looked at in more detail in order to analyze it. Taking a look at a verbose listing of the buildroot before creating a %files section is something every packager ought to do. Based on just the excerpt from his %install section, one cannot jump to bullet-proof conclusions. It is likely that something with the symlink causes trouble, and e.g. perhaps it is a recursive link. But creating library symlinks in %install is a fully valid operation, which other packages in Fedora do, too. Some make good use of "ldconfig -n %buildroot/some/path" (yes, in %install), others create the links with "ln -s". Throwing out the code altogether (as just suggested) should not be needed. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
