Hi, In my build root directory, I have created a file (say temp.txt) and then I created a hard-link to it (say temp1.txt). After this, I created rpm out of build root directory. On installing this rpm I see that i-node numbers of both files are same; that means rpm is aware of this hard-link and creating the same on rpm installation.
But, I am not able to understand how rpm has treated this hard-link with a .rpm file. For example, I have a file with 5k size. On duplicating it, rpm size increased by ~2.5k but with hard-link it increased by 1.9k. What is this 1.9k? Is this totally a metadata about hard-link or something else? Please help me in understanding this hard-link handling. Thanks, Rajul
