I don't think it's biggest usefulness is cleaning up "sloppy packaging," it's useful as you upgrade a package to a new version of software, and some files change and you need to make changes to your %files section, it can alert you of that. A warning would be nicer though, there can be legitimate reasons for leaving some files out, it's silly to have to hunt them all down and rm them. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
