Description Michele Baldessari 2015-02-16 22:39:33 UTC
Description of problem:
I am packaging vim-proc which builds a shared object as part of the vim
plugin (/usr/share/vim/vimfiles/autoload/vimproc_unix.so)

Since placing an .so file under /usr/share is a no-no, I was wondering if
we can add some directory like %{_libdir}/vim/plugins to vim-filesystem or 
something similar for this kind of situation.

Also see the discussion here:
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/packaging/2014-November/010355.html

I looked around other distros, but none seems to have tackled
this issue yet. Thoughts?

Cheers,
Michele

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 23 development cycle.
Changing version to '23'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 23 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 23 End Of Life. Thank you.)

I've added %{_libdir}/vim/ to vim-filesystem. I don't think another subdirectory is necessary.
