Description of problem: Rpm's apidocs are missing. The rpm-devel rpm is shipped with a an empty /usr/share/doc/rpm-devel-<version>/apidocs directory. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.4.2-15.2 and earlier, seemingly at least comprizing fc4. Expected results: Shipping the docs.
Later versions of rpm contain the apidocs, which are also online at http://wraptastic.org.
(In reply to comment #1) > Later versions of rpm contain the apidocs, which are also online > at http://wraptastic.org. Do you find this answer appropriate? This PR is on a packaging bug in FC4 and FC5, which even your last week's rpm update failed to fix. Also, the apidocs on rpm.org do not point to a current version. I.e. this packaging bug in FC has not been fixed.
Yes I find this answer appropriate for someone requesting rpm doco. The apidocs in rpm-devel-4.4.6-1 are uptodate, and easily extracted for whatever purpose you wish. But if you want to wait on FC4 and FC5 and FC6 fixing, be my guest ...
Jeff, whilst I appreciate your ongoing work on bugs and new features in upstream RPM, and CLOSED>UPSTREAM being a valid state for some of the bugs in bugzilla things like this which are specifically aimed at Fedora or RHEL aren't really resolved by that state. I'm reopening so it remains on my list.
