Description Pavel Raiskup 2017-05-10 16:59:19 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1449517 +++

Description of problem:

less /usr/share/doc/roundcubemail-1.1.9/README.rpm

lesspipe.sh invokes rpm to parse README.rpm file and rpm hangs so badly you can't even terminate it from same terminal.

Please rename the file to something which doesn't have .rpm extension. I'd suggest README.rpm-install.

Fedora version has exactly same problem so I suggest fixing this same issue there too.

I plan to fix this minor issue during next update

Already fixed in my repo, used as upstream for Fedora:
https://git.remirepo.net/cgit/rpms/roundcubemail.git/commit/?id=a0d08f6587f09706a221dcf327ab96b84164c2e7

Adding less maintained to CC, as this probably other packages (.rpm was quite commonly used name for readme file, since .fedora was discouraged)

Could be nice, if this can be fixed globally on "less" side.

Actually dnf only found some other pakcages with same issue on F25.

cyrus-imapd
iipsrv
mozldap
slrn-pull

FWIW: In PostgreSQL packaging, we use 'README.rpmdist'.

Comment 1 Tuomo Soini 2017-05-10 17:25:12 UTC
lesspipe.sh already uses file - maybe it should use file command to find out if files are actually desired file type?

Comment 2 Pavel Raiskup 2017-05-16 14:56:15 UTC
Based on discussion with Kevin, I added the --nomanifest option into
lesspipe.sh:
