So I think the current situation is that there's several options. The preferred option is to have all of the packages that install files there own the directory. The question for the packaging committee is whether we should: A) Require that in the Guidelines B) Say that we, the FPC, support people changing gtk-doc requiring packages to own the directory instead. C) Say that we, the FPC, consider this to be a matter of maintainer choice where it doesn't matter at all if the packages require gtk-doc or own the directory. If that sounds correct, could you copy/paste that into a new ticket on https://fedorahosted.org/fpc/ and give it the meeting keyword? -Toshio -- packaging mailing list packaging@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/packaging
