dnf ref-counting of identical files?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have two packages which install identical files under the same name in the same locations (/usr/share/icons/hicolor/256x256/mimetypes/ and the like). `dnf install` does not warn about conflicts, `rpm -qf` shows both packages as owner, `dnf erase`ing one leaves the files in place, erasing the last one erases the file.

Now, this is all works better than I would have hoped for. Does this work by a general mechanism (inclding checksumming), or is this special cased for the mimetype icons, or an artefact of installing both packages within the same install command?
