Hello,
creating the symlink to licenses in the licenses package is curently
done by including a small script in each spec file, like:
for FILE in COPYING copyright.txt ; do
MD5SUM=$(md5sum $FILE | sed 's/ .*//')
if test -f /usr/share/doc/licenses/md5/$MD5SUM ; then
ln -sf /usr/share/doc/licenses/md5/$MD5SUM $FILE
fi
done
This is error-prone (see bug 306681) and adds lots of duplicated code to
the spec files.
Please add a small script to the licenses package or create a rpm macro
that creates the symlink. If the rpm macro could also drop in a
"Requires: licenses", it would be even better.
The specfile should then contain commands like (replacing the example
above):
%symlink_license COPYING
%symlink_license copyright.txt
Oh, and please do this ASAP, before more package(r)s include the script
in the spec file ;-)
Regards,
Christian Boltz
