https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=979124 --- Comment #47 from Michael Schwendt <bugs.michael@xxxxxxx> --- The FPC ticket covers a few work-arounds. 1) If the files in the -doc package need to be stored in %_docdir/%name, you cannot use %doc magic in the base package to include files from builddir. You need to install the files into the %buildroot in %install, so you can include them via full %_docdir/%name/foo paths. 2) If the files in the -doc package may be placed in a different path, figure out whether there is an option to install the HTML docs into a specific path. Alternatively, move them at the end of %install. Note that one common way to relocate doc files is to move them from %buildroot into builddir (e.g. from %buildroot to $(pwd)/_tmp_docs) and then use %doc magic in the subpackage %files list to include those files. For the -doc package the files will end up in %_docdir/%name-doc then, not %_docdir/%name. Also note that a set of %exclude lines would work, too, but bears a risk of duplicating future doc files again when you forget to add new %excludes for them. > Also who owns the doc root directory? Both packages may own it based on: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#The_directory_is_owned_by_a_package_which_is_not_required_for_your_package_to_function -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
