Public bug reported:
Description: Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS
Release: 18.04
rpm:
Installiert: 4.14.1+dfsg1-2
Installationskandidat: 4.14.1+dfsg1-2
Versionstabelle:
*** 4.14.1+dfsg1-2 500
500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/universe amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
Executed commands: $> rpmbuild -E %_localstatedir
$> rpmbuild -E %_sharedstatedir
Expected results: /var
/var/lib
Actual results: /var
/usr/com
Rationale: Although the GNU Coding Standards proclaim that
'localstatedir' should always be set to '$(prefix)/var' and
'sharedstatedir' should always be set to '$(prefix)/com', RPM overrides
'localstatedir' in 'platform.in' to '/var'. It would be very useful (and
in accordance with other Linux distributions like Fedora) to replace
'sharedstatedir' with a more familiar value '/var/lib'. Unfortunately,
this has to be triggered manually at compile-time of the RPM sources
with './configure --sharedstatedir=/var/lib'.
