It used to work (more or less) that way. The problem is when a directory is supposed to have specific ownership/permission settings, only the package that actually owns the directory has that configured. It doesn't make sense to try to put that info in every package (should the rsync RPM know the permissions of /usr/lib/systemd/system?). -- Chris Adams <linux@xxxxxxxxxxx> -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
