I have doubts about that (and I've done packaging guidelines stuff long enough). Let me explain: 1.) That guideline would only be somewhat important for actual files (and not directories). The rationale is simple: By mistake one can include a file more than once in the same %files section (which does not do any harm!) and not notice this when moving the file to the %files section of another subpackage. Then you end up with the same file in multiple packages. That's bad, as it can cause side-effects. 2.) That guideline would be more important if it referred to files listed in multiple subpackages. Because that is something rpmbuild does NOT detect. So, once again, consider it a hint/documentation on what packagers might want to know about when creating packages. Still no reason to require a package submitter to spend extra time on building fresh rpms just for this. Here it was a simple redundant %dir entry. It can be pointed out and fixed in cvs. It's not a blocker-criterion. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
