- install WPrefs data files in %_datadir, and WPrefs in %_bindir
Beside (hopefully) fixing the multilib issue, I believe these are saner
install locations. I have built and installed, but not tested.
The real issue here is a key question: Do we really need WindowMaker.i386 in the x86_64 repo just because the dependency path of a WindowMaker -devel package leads to this package? That means, is it possible to split off a package, on which the -devel package can depend on without requiring the main package? Further, files in /etc are no hard conflicts if they are marked %config. They just lead to ugly and unnecessary .rpmsave creation. I agree that it would be even better to split a -libs subpackage but the patch I propose should be applied anyway to correct installation locations. It seems like a -libs package existed in the past and that it was removed. WindowMaker packaging could be ameliorated a lot, in fact. I think that something like a re-review could help. Thanks for the patch. Seems better to me as well to put WPrefs stuff in the 'right' locations. The multi lib stuff is low priority so I will look at splitting of a -libs package sometime next week when I will have more time for this. Patrice if you dislike stuff about the wmaker package just drop me a mail and we can discuss stuff. |
