OK, sorry.

One arguable reason is that historical docker put its runtime there,
specifically in /usr/libexec/docker/docker-runc-current.

A second one is that I don't like polluting /usr/bin with commands that
are not intended for end-users. But that's just me.

A third reason is lack of manpages and silencing a warning from fedora-review.


The first argument is quite weak, based on other container software:

The moby-engine package has only docker and dockerd in /usr/bin,
and then has:

/usr/libexec/docker/docker-init
/usr/libexec/docker/docker-proxy

but I believe it relies on runc, which is /usr/bin/runc.

Podman is looking for runc all over the place:

# Paths to look for a valid OCI runtime (runc, runv, etc)
[runtimes]
runc = [
            "/usr/bin/runc",
            "/usr/sbin/runc",
            "/usr/local/bin/runc",
            "/usr/local/sbin/runc",
            "/sbin/runc",
            "/bin/runc",
            "/usr/lib/cri-o-runc/sbin/runc"
]

crun = [
            "/usr/bin/crun",
            "/usr/local/bin/crun",
]

So there does not seem to be any settled theory.

I will do the change back to /usr/bin, but reluctantly :-)

I pasted there the output of go2rpm here. I assume they have a rationale for
this, and I don't want to break their approach unnecessarily. Who knows if
they have some scripts scourging rpms for these macros, etc.

In short, I don't understand the implications, but at least regarding license,
I suspect this may be related to the Tech Talk given by David Fontana
recently, regarding the problem with the historical license compliance model
for Fedora and Red Hat when confronted with languages that have their own
package manager.

To make a long story short, the way I understand it is that historically,
we complied by shipping the source, assuming that the license was in the
source.
For languages such as go or nodejs or Java, this may no longer be the case,
i.e. you may actually pull some additional code (thus some extra licenses)
in binary format without knowing it.

I imagine that this whole license fishing done by go2rpm may be an attempt to
address that problem.

So for now, I would prefer to leave it as is, unless it triggers a warning.

However, I did add a big fat comment explaining where this came from.
We can remove it later if the go folks confirm it is useless.

I think this is true for go-rpm-macros (part of %gometa)

I don't think this is true for compiler(go-compiler), rpm -qR on src rpm
does not show compiler(go-compiler) anymore if I remove it.

Was not obvious to me ;-)

Rephrased the comment to avoid offensive mention of "ridiculous"

Moved it to /usr/share/kata-containers/defaults
(just needed to pass a variable to the makefile)

We already have a /usr/share/kata-containers for images.

Which package(s) need a %dir for it? I added one, not sure it's correct.

I tried this macro (by locally patching the macro files), but I
get errors using it. It expands to:

'BUILDFLAGS=%{gocompilerflags} -tags="rpm_crashtraceback " -ldflags "-X
github.com/kata-containers/runtime/version=1.8.2 -X
github.com/kata-containers/runtime/version.tag=1.8.2 -B
0x60831d87667855a13661dfaf1b99ee957b4de2a4 -extldflags '\''-Wl,-z,relro
-Wl,--as-needed  -Wl,-z,now -specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-ld '\''"
-a -v -x'

The %{gocompilerflags} at the beginning causes problems. Gave up for now.

There is also an ExcludeArch that comes from %gometa.

Done.

You'll have more warnings about missing man pages after reverting
the binaries from /usr/libexec to /usr/bin.
