Umm.. - currently (it seems) that if -devel package contains %_libdir/libfoo.so and -libs or main package has %_libdir/libfoo.so.X, rpmbuild adds the dependency libfoo.so.X to -devel subpackage. For example libX11-devel has R: libX11-xcb.so.1 and R: libX11.so.6, despite that libX11-devel contains only ldconfig symlink, header files, pkgconfig files, and man files. - And usually if libraries (%_libdir/libfoo.so.X*) are splitted out into -libs subpackage, the main package has "R: -libs = %version-%release" https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Requiring_Base_Package (In this case the "base" package is -libs). e.g. file has "R: file-libs = %version-%release", many others do so -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ package-review mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/package-review
