Is that where the docdir is supposed to be these days? Shouldn't it
actually be $prefix/share/doc/$name-$version? When I didn't override
the docdir but did use install_in_opt, I got the following in the
resulting RPM:
/opt/openmpi/1.3a1r15304/share/openmpi/mpif90-wrapper-data.txt
/usr/share/doc/openmpi-1.3a1r15304/INSTALL
So I'm thinking that the doc files (LICENSE and friends) should be in
/opt/openmpi/1.3a1r15304/share/openmpi-1.3a1r15304/INSTALL
Which actually seems kinda weird, since there's an /opt/openmpi/
1.3a1r15304/share/openmpi/ directory.
Yes, I agree that the result is a little bit awkward-looking, but my
rationale is when someone wants to have the RPM install in opt,
chances are, they want _everything_ to go in opt to make sure parts of
the RPM don't "pollute" anything outside of /opt. So, whatever the
docdir path is is of lesser importance, I think, than just having it
somewhere under opt when install_in_opt is requested. IMHO, the ideal
placement would be for all those files currently going under
/opt/openmpi/share (including LICENSE & friends and help & wrapper txt
files) to be placed under common subdirectory, whatever it might be
called (I would be fine with either %{_prefix}/share/%{_name} or
%{_prefix}/share/%{_name}-%{_version} ).
Thanks,
Alex.
