Description

Odd, the scriptlet is:
/sbin/install-info --delete %{_infodir}/pinentry.info %{_infodir}/dir || :
and the ||: at the end should make errors non-fatal.
It's not fatal but better add [ -f %{_infodir}/pinentry.info ] && ...
There are lots of this kind of errors and they are written on the console when installing with --excludedocs
Then this ought to be changed, http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:ScriptletSnippets#Texinfo I suppose the output could be redirected to /dev/null. I'll take up the issue with the FPC, see what others think. (I would've prefered if this had been done *prior* to the mass-filing of bugs, but oh well). Alexander, would you post your comment on fedora-packaging-list? Otherwise I think all these mass-filed bugs should be closed with NOTABUG. Mamoru-san, can you CC me on the thread so I can reply. I'm not subscribed to the list. My reply is this: Quality Engineering at Red Hat want's clean logs because otherwise people think there are errors with their installation. This is particularly true for RHEL products. Errors like: "no such file or directory" during package installation may generate unnecessary support calls. This thing aside clean logs is always a nice thing to have. * Wed Sep 13 2009 Rex Dieter <rdieter> - 0.7.6-4 - Errors installing with --excludedocs (#515925) |
