Description Igor Raits 2019-07-21 11:11:28 UTC

Hello,

Fedora Packaging Guidelines allow dependencies only on files/directories from /usr/bin, /usr/sbin and /etc directories[0].
Your package depends on files/directories outside of those. See below for more information about package/dependencies.

---
freeipa-4.8.0-1.fc31.src:
  - /usr/lib/krb5/plugins/kdb/db2.so
---

Please correct those or provide reason why is it correct.
It is very important to not download huge filelists.xml just because few packages in distribution depend on non-standard paths.

Thanks for cooperation!

This is a correct dependency. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1364338 for details.

Why can't it just depend on "krb5-server" instead of path?
