--- Comment #29 from Steve <[email protected]> --- Phil, Thanks for the feedback and encouragement! Just a clarification on your change suggestion, my understating is that the %dir command is just for if your package needs to claim ownership of an *empty* directory. For example a package that has several optional subpackages that could each populate that directory. If you want to claim ownership of a directory *and* populate it at the same time then just listing the directory itself (optionally ending with the trailing forward slash (?, either-or seems to work)) is sufficient, as in: '%{_datadir}/stroke/' or '%{_datadir}/stroke'. %files sees the files that need to go into and realises it's a directory and claims ownership at the same time. On the other hand '%{_datadir}/stroke/*' does generate the following in fedora-review: [ ]: Package requires other packages for directories it uses. Note: No known owner of /usr/share/stroke [ ]: Package must own all directories that it creates. Note: Directories without known owners: /usr/share/stroke Anyways, I really scratched my head over this and had to dig around in the documentation to figure this much out, so I may not understand it properly and would welcome your correction Cheers, Steve -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
