Description Will Benton 2014-02-27 18:58:31 UTC 
Description of problem:

The current Mono packaging guidelines recommend using hard-coded paths; this is ugly, against broader guidelines, and leads to rpmlint errors.  (See https://fedorahosted.org/fpc/ticket/395 for more information.)

After discussing this in today's FPC meeting, the preferred solution is to provide macros for Mono assembly paths in /etc/rpm/macros.mono-srpm as follows:

%global _monodir %{_prefix}/lib/mono
%global _monogacdir %{_monodir}/gac

Once these are available in redhat-rpm-config, the Mono packaging guidelines can be updated.

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

redhat-rpm-config-9.1.0-46 (for F19)
redhat-rpm-config-9.1.0-54 (for F20)
redhat-rpm-config-9.1.0-57 (for rawhide)
Comment 1 Panu Matilainen 2014-04-08 10:36:46 UTC 
Added in redhat-rpm-config-14-1.fc21.
