(far behind with some of my folders) As no reply is listed in this thread: rpmlint verbose info would say: '''The soname of the library is neither of the form lib<libname>.so.<major> or lib<libname>-<major>.so.''', The period really isn't the problem, the missing version number is. Often it's an error because it bears a higher risk of causing breakage. Btw, "mygui" in Fedora 14 is mispackaged related to this. This lib has been moved into a private directory %_libdir/MYGUI/ where it is placed outside run-time linker's search path. The lib isn't found by the -tools and -demos, which are linked with it. Additionally, some of the packages suffer from unowned directories. -- packaging mailing list packaging@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/packaging
