I should have double checked this. Apparently --includedocs _does_ work as expected. It is just no longer the default. I checked this with subversion and with my dvd_rw-tools package. Conclusion: - OpenPKG defines only "additional" documentation as %doc. Manpages are handled like other "ordinary" files. - Someone who wants to install "additional" documentation, has to give the option "--includedocs" to rpm. This behaviour can be changed by specifying "%_excludedocs 0" in $HOME/.rpmmacros. - To find out what pieces of a package are flagged as "%doc" one can use the command "rpm -qd <pkg>" or "rpm -qdp <pkg>.rpm". Or just look into the .spec file. (mk) -- Matthias Kurz; Fuldastr. 3; D-28199 Bremen; VOICE +49 421 53 600 47 >> Im prämotorischen Cortex kann jeder ein Held sein.
