Not owning the directory can result in the directory being left behind at package erase time, since none of the dependencies of this package own it. On the other hand, having multiple packages owning directories can cause issues with path-based dependencies. So there's no clear "winner" about which is the correct approach. As for precedents, a majority of (for example) perl module packages in Extras share ownership of directories under /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8 (FC5) > > > I've noticed that you seem to > > > have problems with directories ownership, and would suggest working with your > > > sponsor or a mentor to prevent this from happening on your future packages. > > > > What other directory ownership problems have you noticed? > > > > Monodoc, where your taking ownership of directories (/usr/lib/mono & > /usr/lib/mono/gac) which are owned by mono-core. monodoc is not one of my packages. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
