Igor committed a change to glibc so that from Fedora 28 going forward, glibc will run ldconfig after the transaction if any of the library directory trees was modified.

This means that libraries which package the lib*.so.* symbolic links will no longer have to run ldconfig in %postin/%postun, and we can automate the creation of those symbolic links with a buildroot policy hook, see:

  <https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/redhat-rpm-config/pull-request/12>

Packages which edit ld.so search paths will still have to run ldconfig in %postin/%postun, as before.

As now with file trigger changes are committed and new glibc packages will be in rawhide repo it should be mass change removing all ldconfig execution from *ALL* Fedora specs.

[tkloczko@domek SPECS.fedora]$ grep -e '^%post.*/sbin/ldconfig' * | awk -F\. '{print $1}' | uniq | wc -l
3257
[tkloczko@domek SPECS.fedora]$ grep -e ' */sbin/ldconfig' * | awk -F\. '{print $1}' | uniq | wc -l
3432

And as well:

[tkloczko@domek SPECS.fedora]$ grep -e '^Requires(post):.*/sbin/ldconfig' * |wc -l
125
[tkloczko@domek SPECS.fedora]$ grep -e '^Requires(postun):.*/sbin/ldconfig' * |wc -l
114

This needs to be removed as well. If not it will be like with for example in hicolor-icon-theme.spec after remove %post/%postun/%postrans with gtk-update-icon-cache execution still is possible to find in this spec:

Requires(post): coreutils
Requires(postun): coreutils


If all those changes will be not it will be like with other such changes which never have been finished:

[tkloczko@domek SPECS.fedora]$ grep '^%clean' * | wc -l
3007
[tkloczko@domek SPECS.fedora]$ grep '^BuildRoot:' * | wc -l
2746
[tkloczko@domek SPECS.fedora]$ grep '^Group:' * | wc -l
18065

To be hones I would be personally [1] way happier if Igor will finish first finish remove hicolor icons theme cache update before jumping on ldconfig.

Just please Igor (or anyone else who will be helping him) do this properly finishing whole set of necessary changes within as short as it is only possible time.

Next point which someone needs to take care is update rpmlint to generate warning that use ldconfig in %post/%postun is no longer needed.


==== And yet another thing connected with above.

I've been many times proposing to use in specs single package/file name name in each Reqiure or BuildRequires.
I know that many packages do not like this because they are already using other style.
However it is not about what me or someone else may or may not prefer.
Using single package per Reqiure or BuildRequires is not a matter of personal preferences because if all those Reqiure/BuildRequires will be with single package or file path all mass changes will be way easier to do by simple "sed -ie 'd,^Requires(post):.*/sbin/ldconfig,' *spec"

Still about 2/3 of all above specs are waiting on finish remove gtk-update-icon-cache execution in %post/%postun/%postrans.
I would be personally happier because I've requested to remove those updates and Igor have been removing all those executions.
More than 3 weeks after this change started still is not finished.
