I will be using popt-1.13-7.x86_64 built using this version
of RPM:
$ rpm -q rpm-build
rpm-build-4.8.0-19.el6_2.1.x86_64
which is (arguably) "bog standard" even if not yet LSB standard.
The amount of sewage from LSB pkgchk from a "bog standard"
package will be the first item I will attempt to repair based on
this rationale
Tools that spew "Danger Will Robinson!" errors just aren't all that
useful.
Instead the tool should include a --verbose mode and succinct text
describing the failure context.
Its is also pretty clear that there are several mixed layers of testing
that have nothing whatsoever to do with "package format conformance"
that will need disablers/enablers.
The output format for humans isn't regular/predicatble; instead there
needs to be multiple/selectable formats, including the existing "journal-*"
file that is dumped into the current directory, and also other useful formats
like XML/JSON/YAML that are sufficiently regular that the markup might
actually have uses outside of LSB certification.
Finally there is the semantic level of interpretation that needs to be
parameterized
based on context (like LSB version, or even non-LSB) conformance, so that
endless amounts of time discussing
What SHOULD be an error?
need not be revisited.
