+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1449517 +++ Description of problem: less /usr/share/doc/roundcubemail-1.1.9/README.rpm lesspipe.sh invokes rpm to parse README.rpm file and rpm hangs so badly you can't even terminate it from same terminal. Please rename the file to something which doesn't have .rpm extension. I'd suggest README.rpm-install. Fedora version has exactly same problem so I suggest fixing this same issue there too. --- Additional comment from Remi Collet on 2017-05-10 11:43:20 CEST --- I plan to fix this minor issue during next update Already fixed in my repo, used as upstream for Fedora: https://git.remirepo.net/cgit/rpms/roundcubemail.git/commit/?id=a0d08f6587f09706a221dcf327ab96b84164c2e7 --- Additional comment from Remi Collet on 2017-05-10 12:07:14 CEST --- Adding less maintained to CC, as this probably other packages (.rpm was quite commonly used name for readme file, since .fedora was discouraged) Could be nice, if this can be fixed globally on "less" side. --- Additional comment from Tuomo Soini on 2017-05-10 12:12:47 CEST --- Actually dnf only found some other pakcages with same issue on F25. cyrus-imapd iipsrv mozldap slrn-pull --- Additional comment from Pavel Raiskup on 2017-05-10 14:51:35 CEST --- FWIW: In PostgreSQL packaging, we use 'README.rpmdist'.
lesspipe.sh already uses file - maybe it should use file command to find out if files are actually desired file type?
Based on discussion with Kevin, I added the --nomanifest option into lesspipe.sh: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/less.git/commit/?id=f32e1da3d76fa34a53cd
