You shouldn't fabricate documentation or duplicate > it from the main package just to make the complaint go away. > Understood. > Perhaps you don't understand the distinction between the regular package > dependencies and scriptlet dependencies. Package dependencies simply need to > be satisfied in order for the package to work, so rpm ensures that they are > installed by the end of the transaction. Scriptlets may run at other times > (during the transaction, either before or after the package is installed, > upgraded or removed) and so any dependencies they may have needs to be > specified so that rpm will ensure those dependencies are present when the > scriptlets run. Or, to put it another way, simply having the package depend on > something called in the scriptlets is not sufficient. > Thanks for the heads up,I was indeed not aware of the differences. I am reading the information I can find for this. > The "many duplicates in files" issue refers to the duplicated documentation. Thanks. Re. the md5 inclusion: would it help if I make a separate libmd5 package? I whipped up a quick autofoo configuration, so I could package this as a separate package. I would not know what license to put in the spec file.... If that would help I can add a simple check for libmd5 in ffgtk's config and be done with it. comments? -- 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. _______________________________________________ package-review mailing list package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/package-review
