Description Ville Skyttä 2003-11-01 21:46:30 UTC 
As discussed in
https://www.redhat.com/mailman/private/rpm-list/2003-October/msg00170.html,
it'd be nice if check-files and friends would catch unpackaged
symlinks too.

Modifying check-files to use

   find $RPM_BUILD_ROOT ! -type d | LC_ALL=C sort > $FILES_DISK

...doesn't quite do what I expected, it makes rpmbuild whine about
dangling symlinks even if they're listed in %files.

Here's a patch from Mandrake's rpm-4.2-25mdk which seems to apply to this
issue.
