Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gcc-gfortran-14.2.1-6.fc42 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install gcc-gfortran by executing 'dnf install gcc-gfortran' on a system where directory /usr/lib64/gfortran is absent. 2. Execute 'rpm -qf /usr/lib64/gfortran'.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 42 development cycle. Changing version to 42.
This issue still affects current 'rawhide' but e.g. also the very recent gcc-gfortran-8.5.0-26.el8_10. This issue should be easy to fix, shouldn't it?
This issue is a long-standing one, and I believe that I had opened an identical bug report already once many years ago. Is there any specific reason why the ownership of directory /usr/lib64/gfortran is not fixed where it should be fixed namely in the gcc package?
