It was suggested to me to bring this issue to this list. The packaging guidelines says that a package should not own a directory that is owned by a package on which it depends. The packaging guidelines also says that packages should own all directories needed in order not to leave orphaned directories after a package de-installation. The way rpm/yum currently works these guidelines are contradicting and you must choose which one to implement in your packaging. My question is - is this a bug in yum/rpm, or a flaw in the packaging guidelines?
