Description Fabio Valentini 2024-10-04 11:14:32 UTC

Description of problem:
On almost every RPM transaction (installing, updating, removing packages), some rpm scriptlet from glibc-common prints these deprecation warnings:

warning: posix.fork(): .fork(), .exec(), .wait() and .redirect2null() are deprecated, use rpm.spawn() or rpm.execute() instead

This is the case on all current version of Fedora, as far as I can tell, so the lua functions used in the scriptlet have likely been deprecated in RPM 4.19.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
glibc-common-2.40-3.fc41.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install a package (for example: "sudo dnf install gstreamer1-plugin-dav1d")
2. Watch deprecation warnings from the glibc-common RPM scriptlets scroll by.

Actual results:
No deprecation warnings.

Expected results:
Deprecation warnings in RPM / DNF output.

Additional info:
N/A
