Description Moritz Barsnick 2002-11-13 12:50:57 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)

Description of problem:
In sendmail-8.12.6-1, the %provides section of the i386 RPM funnily supplies 
the full paths to a few man pages. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
8.12.6-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rpm -qp --provides sendmail-8.12.6-1.i386.rpm
2.
3.
	

Actual Results:
smtpdaemon
/usr/sbin/sendmail
/usr/bin/mailq
/usr/bin/newaliases
/usr/bin/rmail
/usr/share/man/man1/mailq.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man1/newaliases.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man5/aliases.5.gz
sendmail = 8.12.6-1


Expected Results:
smtpdaemon
/usr/sbin/sendmail
/usr/bin/mailq
/usr/bin/newaliases
/usr/bin/rmail
sendmail = 8.12.6-1


Additional info:

I have yet to see a package which might require these particular entries. ;-)

It's probably some %find-provides magic looking for the corresponding binaries 
(mailq, newaliases, rmail).

Even if no other rpm requires them, they should be ok to stay in the
current rpm.

greetings,
