This is the approach I used in libpng10: %files %defattr(-,root,root,-) %dir %{_docdir}/%{name}-%{version}/ %doc %{_docdir}/%{name}-%{version}/ANNOUNCE %doc %{_docdir}/%{name}-%{version}/CHANGES %doc %{_docdir}/%{name}-%{version}/LICENSE %doc %{_docdir}/%{name}-%{version}/README %doc %{_docdir}/%{name}-%{version}/TODO %doc %{_docdir}/%{name}-%{version}/Y2KINFO ... %files devel %defattr(-,root,root,-) %doc %{_docdir}/%{name}-%{version}/example.c %doc %{_docdir}/%{name}-%{version}/libpng-%{version}.txt ... It's a bit ugly but it works. -- 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
