Since when is listing all the directories in an install mandatory?

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

 



Recently, I've been observing RPM installs to fail because it tries to copy I file into a non-existing directory. I also observed that rpmbuild will now warn me with "directories not explicitly listed".

My understanding was that a directory listed with %dir was for exclusive use by that rpm. I'm probably wrong there, but I'm still annoyed that I now have to go through all the spec files and add the %dir entries in the %files list.
