It would seem an enterprising contributor has taken it upon themselves to mass-file bugs wrt installing packages using --excludedocs. Problem being that many of these bugs are about scriptlet output, like, in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=515925 install-info: No such file or directory for /usr/share/info/pinentry.info which follows our current guidlines, http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:ScriptletSnippets#Texinfo and is not fatal to the transaction. Should the guideline be changed to suppress the erroneous output, or checks added (as suggested in the aforementioned bug), like [ -f %{_infodir}/pinentry.info ] && ...
Well, if there is output that we wouldn't want suppressed, we could do the file check, but I'm wondering how much of a slow down it would be to check for that file several hundred times in a large transaction.
