Yes, exactly. And the apache RPM does not create the /var/www/cgi-bin directory directly by having %dir /var/www/cgi-bin. It's only created, because it contains files which are in /var/www/cgi-bin. > packages.

However, because of this, there can be no package which has a Requires: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts, because this directory isn't provided or owned by a package. Yes, "many" packages might create this directory. But that's not important as far as RPM's dependencies are concerned. I do agree that this might/is a bug in the Mandrake apache RPM. But as I already said, there's nothing that can be done about it - at least not as far as the the current and older packages of apache are concerned. Would you accept a patch to the spec which makes this a conditional requirement, so that packages built on a Mandrake machine do not have this?
