No, but do you really want to try to document bits and pieces like this somewhere and keep it up to date for N distro versions, where the method how to do it properly most likely varies between packages? The fundamental problem with a page containing large amounts of such information I see is that will have to be *huge* to cover an useful amount of cases, and when it's that huge, it may very well be indigestible by the intended target audience, ie. those who actually need guidance in fixing something like a rpath problem. I claim that a Wiki page for this purpose is not a reasonable substitute for human assistance, and thus fear that it may end up as a big pile of confusion and a maintenance nightmare. A list of links to documents covering specific problem areas would be more useful and help people to actually learn about the issues instead of parroting recipes. But by all means, please prove me wrong ;) > I think it would be much more reasonable to let the Wiki page stew and > then digest the useful bits into rpmlint. Yep, that would be cool, although I don't quite agree with "more reasonable" at the moment. -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
