After a recent bug report I've received [1] I thought to conduct a
survey on all packages available in Fedora to find conflicts between
binary names under /usr/bin but I don't know how exactly do that. Is
there a way to extract the list of all files installed under /usr/bin
from all packages?
I tried with 'dnf repoquery --disablerepo="updates" -l *.x86_64 | grep
"/usr/bin" &> filelist.txt' but it seems to only list files for packages
I've installed on my system.
My suspect is that this survey will result in many packages are using
the same very common binary names.
I would like also to discuss the proposal to have a check in the rpm
build process on filenames that get installed under /usr/bin. This would
prevent these type of conflicts.
Maybe this can be allowed in very special cases with the usage of a mark
in file section, just like we do with %config.
What's your opinion?
