Hi, Before I am going to package System Configuration Collector for Fedora, I decided to run rpmlint on the existing, generic rpm of SCC. SCC consists of 25 executable shell scripts that are installed in /opt/scc/bin. Configuration files reside in /etc/opt/scc and data is stored in /var/opt/scc/. All According to the FHS (http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#OPTADDONAPPLICATIONSOFTWAREPACKAGES). Fedora follows the FHS (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Filesystem_Layout), however, rpmlint reports errors for all scripts in /opt/scc/bin: scc.noarch: E: dir-or-file-in-opt /opt/scc/bin/scc-log A file in the package is located in /opt. It's not permitted for packages to install files in this directory. Why is it not permitted for packages to install files in /opt while that is allright according to the FHS and Fedora follows FHS? regards Siem Korteweg -- packaging mailing list packaging@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/packaging
