What exactly is this rpmlib dependency for? My guess from a *quick* code read is that it ensures that hardlinks can't get different file attributes. If that's the case, I will be adding a patch to our local version to allow disabling (cf. _noVersionedDependencies). We need to support older versions of rpm which don't meet this dependency and I'd rather have the hardlink than a copy of a file. /fc _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
