Auto-Provides and glibc

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

Quick question:  I've been cleaning up some local packages of mine,
including a glibc, and noticed it's automatically adding Provides for
all of the iconv modules %{libdir}/gconv/*.so.  I thought I'd filter
out these files as per the guidelines[1], but apparently the system
glibc also provides them.  No packages seem to require any of them[2].
 Was this an oversight, or is there a reason to keep advertising these
~250 modules through RPM Provides?

Thanks.

David
