Description Petr Pisar 2022-10-07 08:45:59 UTC
I noticed that rpmlint-2.4.0-2.fc38.noarch does not associate manual pages with programs and reports a missing manual page:

$ rpm -q -lv -p ../RPMS/noarch/libloc-tools-0.9.15-1.fc38.noarch.rpm

This happens even with in-Fedora pacakges, like shigofumi-0.9-5.fc37.x86_64.rpm. I believe this used to work before.

Comment 1 Todd Zullinger 2022-10-07 15:57:13 UTC
Thanks for the report.  It looks like this broke somewhere between 2.3.0 and 2.4.0.  I'll take a look and see if it's already been reported or fixed upstream.  If not, I'll try to bisect and then send a fix upstream.  Or, railing that, report it.

Comment 2 Todd Zullinger 2022-10-07 17:29:47 UTC
The breakage bisects to upstream 718e1eb9 (extend checks related to manual pages, 2022-08-26).  I've asked in the ticket which led to that commit if anyone sees why it's broken[1].  With luck, the folks involved will be able to fix it quicker than if I have to dig around to debug the code.  I'll give that a few days to see.
