Will check. Thanks for reporting. The problem is a longstanding bug with rpm that can not convert from links/folders to files and viceversa during an upgrade... https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=975909#c13 I'm definitely in the camp that thinks that this must be solved in rpm and the "solution" of forcing packagers to create very ugly workaround in each package and tripping users and packagers up all the time, over and over, is very very pointless. But things are as they are, and for now this must be fixed in the package. Please release the fix, as this bug will break upgrades for people. And since the issue only happens *after* all packages have been downloaded, this is very unpleasant. So, following https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Directory_Replacement/ , actually at least for me the following works: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/lv2/pull-request/2 I would appreciate it if someone can review the above pull request. The package maintainer has reverted back the package to the old deprecated header structure, so not sure this applies anymore: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/lv2/c/c593d97f5cce9e8c940b0c956c5277fc5afdc18e?branch=rawhide I'm doing some testo, I will merge if it's ok. The patch applies because it's after the revert Sorry, I meant "apply" as in relevant if the headers are back in the same layout as they were. |
