Ivan, Has this bug been fixed yet? I don't see anything on the repos. Thanks for your help! George...
Just updated FC30 and tried to install aircrack-ng afterwards. Still same error message as above.
Chatty, I'm not an rpm guru so this might be a stupid question. Please have patience. If I understand rpms in general, this problem seems to be related to "ownership" of the directories above. Does it make sense that ANY rpm "owns" these directories? Shouldn't the concept of "ownership" be ONLY related to files/directories that are specific to an rpm? Maybe you "guys" have done this already with the "filesystem" rpm? If so, then all others should "rent" these directories rather than try to "own" them? Perhaps establishing a phantom rpm named "system" to "own" files/directories like these 3? Just my thoughts. Best regards, George...
I've built a new package that fixes this error: Rawhide: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1181520 F29: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1181523 F28: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1181524 Feel free to reopen this bug if the problem persits.
