Comment 1 Matthias Saou 2007-02-13 10:04:51 UTC
Ouch. Is this really to be considered a bug? I really hope not...

Comment 2 Matthias Saou 2007-06-08 12:51:26 UTC
These files are created at build time. The probably contain some timestamp which
makes them slightly different from one buildd to another. I do not see any easy
way to fix this, nor do I see it as being something useful to "fix" since I
don't think this package makes sense as multilib. Should I remove all files
which make the devel sub-package in order to no longer have it? ... (yeah, I
don't particularly like multilib...)

Comment 3 Michael Schwendt 2007-06-08 13:39:44 UTC
It could be that %_defaultdocdir (/usr/share/doc) for some versions
of rpm contains hacks to work around multi-lib conflicts (cf. bug 228372).


Comment 4 Matthias Saou 2007-06-14 17:25:28 UTC
Yup, all versions of rpm I know "work around" the problem already. And if it was
left up to me, I would not make kannel available as multilib, since there isn't
much (any at all?) point in doing so.

So I'll close as WONTFIX. But I _will_ take care of non worked around multilib
issues like in bug #228177 and bug #228359.
