Description Dennis Gregorovic 2009-07-08 19:39:03 UTC

Description of problem:
The following directories are used by fakeroot but unowned by any package:
  Unowned Directory: /usr/share/man/sv
  Unowned Directory: /usr/share/man/sv/man1


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
fakeroot-1.12.2-21.fc11

Comment 1 Axel Thimm 2009-07-25 13:13:47 UTC

Looks like there are more packages using /usr/share/man/sv

# rpm -qf /usr/share/man/sv/*/*|sort -u
dcraw-8.91-1.fc11.x86_64
fakeroot-1.12.2-21.fc11.x86_64
jwhois-4.0-13.fc11.x86_64
shadow-utils-4.1.2-13.fc11.x86_64

It should probably be fixed in the man package (if "sv" is a valid man locale), since even shadow-utils dumps man pages there.

This problem have to be fixed on the fakeroot side - man package could not contain all locale directories. (The tread about this issue is on:

Why not? I answered on the quoted thread and I think it is better to fix this bug at one place than at several dozens of packages.

Correction to self, these are dozens of locales, but just 9 client packages. Still the solution is unclean and will break once one locale is suddenly supported by man.
