I am getting the following with a package I'm working on:
$ rpmlint --info RPMS/noarch/pyvnc2swf-0.9.3-3.fc9.noarch.rpm
pyvnc2swf.noarch: W: symlink-should-be-relative /usr/bin/vnc2swf
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pyvnc2swf/vnc2swf.py
Absolute symlinks are problematic eg. when working with chroot environments.
pyvnc2swf.noarch: W: symlink-should-be-relative /usr/bin/vnc2swf-edit
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pyvnc2swf/edit.py
Absolute symlinks are problematic eg. when working with chroot environments.
1 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 2 warnings.
I did a bit of a search on absolute symlinks, and tried to make such
using symlinks -cs:
http://rpmlint.zarb.org/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/ticket/25
, but that didn't resolve the rpm warning. Do you know if this is
considered normal to ignore, or can you point to a way to resolve it ?
