There's also at least read-only (%_netsharedpath) /usr/share, and --excludepath. Personally, I'd prefer the status quo to be kept (or add 2>/dev/null if people insist) unless someone writes a script or a macro that takes care of all needed cases, it gets messy otherwise in a lot of specfiles. Or even better if there would be a way to accomplish this stuff some way automatically without having to do anything in scriptlets. -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
