Hello, the current method to register MIME types ( | update-mime-database "/usr/share/mime" in %post scriptlets) breaks[1] on setups where /usr/share is mounted readonly. This bug seems to affect a lot of recent gnome packages so that a general solution must be found. The "right" thing would be probably to do the needed checks in the %post scriptlets. But: * rpm does not offer simple ways for this[2] * every package whould need this check Last point could be solved by a %__update_mime_database macro incorporating the required tests and actions. But the first issue stays so that a quick hack like checking for EROFS in 'update-mime-database' is perhaps the best solution for now.
