Description Florian Weimer 2019-06-05 16:18:12 UTC

Due to the way the locale archive is regenerated, this is redundant with the %ghost declaration.

The current declaration will likely result in an .rpmsave file being generated in a future in-place upgrade scenario.  Hopefully, that can be avoided by doing this transition in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Comment 1 Florian Weimer 2019-08-01 06:33:33 UTC

In Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, this was fixed as part of bug 1717347 (Do not delete locale archive during update).  In Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, the locale archive was never deleted during a package update, which is why I filed this separate bug.

Verified, also checked with rpmlint, no new warnings
