Seems a fair number of -devel packages currently Requires: cmake for the sole purpose of dir ownership of %datadir/cmake or %libdir/cmake, and this seems to not wanted (by users) in some cases Of course, packages are free to avoid the dep by owning the dir themselves. Another possibility is a hybrid compomise of providing a lightweight 'cmake-filesystem' pkg that packages can depend on instead. Thoughts?
It's just not nice in packages to see: %dir %{_datadir}/cmake %dir %{_datadir}/cmake/Modules %{_datadir}/cmake/Modules/FindLibSolv.cmake because everyone should do it that way (apart from packages which are useless without cmake)
cmake-filesystem sounds good to me.

I think that this is unhelpful, switching to Requires: cmake-filesystem is going to make many packages fail to build because cmake is no longer implicitly dragged in as a transitive BR (and Igor Gnatenko's hack from comment #1 is even worse, multi-owned directories suck). Packages installing cmake configs should just Require cmake. Packages installing pkg-config configs even AUTOMATICALLY require pkg-config these days due to the pkg-config dependency generator. So why do we need to treat cmake differently?
