Description (last modified by kcr@…) (diff)

Fedora's rpmbuild has recently changed to automatic detection of Provides: and Requires: by looking at all executable files. This means that any library that is not executable will not be searched. This makes zephyr packages for Scripts uninstallable due to an unresolved dependency.

It would be nice if libzephyr.so.4 could be installed as mode 755 rather than 644 to be consistent with how Redhat seems to want libraries to be installed.

  • Milestone set to 3.1 release

I'm a little unconvinced that this couldn't be tweaked by a spec file, seeing as this appears to be purely an RPMism, and by itself it's not a convincing argument that regular files that can't be executed should have an x bit set.

  • Status changed from new to closed

This turns out to be a redhat oddity.
