You can set it in yum.conf (tsflags=nodocs), but then rpm wont know
about it (so if you install directly with rpm, it'll still install
the docs). Putting it in the macro configuration ensures everything
going through librpm honors it.
This appears very much broken. I just tried to install a container with
the following command line:
yum -y \
--setopt=tsflags=nodocs \
--setopt=keepcache=0 \
--installroot=/home/lennart/minimal/install \
--nogpg \
--releasever=18 \
'--disablerepo=*' \
--enablerepo=fedora \
install systemd passwd openssh-server rpm
And this fails when installing gawk with:
...
Installing : shared-mime-info-1.0-5.fc18.x86_64

Installing : grep-2.14-1.fc18.x86_64

install-info: No such file or directory for /usr/share/info/grep.info.gz
FWIW this is one of the problems with --nodocs (and _install_langs as
well) - packages generally expect to be installed as whole and dont
conditionalize stuff like install-info based on the file existence, so
they end up spitting errors like this.

Oh, that. Just found and fixed this upstream last week, but didn't
realize it affected rpm 4.10 as well. This comes from an ancient piece
of code that attempts to verify all hardlinks got created, its always
been there but the result of this "verification" was never used for
anything prior to rpm 4.10. The issue is simply that the verification
fails to account for files (hardlinks) skipped on purpose, which is a
relatively rare condition. Will fix shortly.
