The filtering page on the wiki is rather out of date as it pre-dates
rpm 4.9 (F-15 onwards), which includes a native filtering mechanism
and doesn't require that the internal dependency generator be turned
off, and is therefore safe to use on packages containing binaries.
Ouch! And thanks! This has cost Richard (the submitter) quite some time.
Any chance that you, who seems to know this stuff, could update the
wiki? Or at least just insert a warning it's outdated? I know I could
that myself, and I will unless someone else does. But it's always an
advantage to know what you are talking about ;)
That would have to go through the packaging committee, as the
Packaging: pages have restricted edit access.
I could write up a draft but it'll take quite a while to get round to
it as I'm really busy at work at the moment.
Paul.
Sorry, I missed it was part of the core guidelines. Should have known
that :(
