Comment 2 Yaakov Selkowitz 2026-01-05 03:48:13 UTC
The copr buildroot is delayed and hence doesn't have the latest dependencies needed by this version.

Scratch build: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=140755402

/usr/share/help/* file listings are handled by `%find_lang`, per the guidelines.  Either this is an issue with the macro, or the filesystem package needs to handle them too.  Either way, this is not an issue with this particular package.

This wording is from upstream, but I can fix it in the spec before uploading.

See bug 2281584.

Comment 8 Benson Muite 2026-01-19 06:35:22 UTC
/usr/share/dbus-1 is also unowned.

For the language directories, maybe own them until the bug gets fixed?
Have raised a needinfo on the bug.

Comment 9 Yaakov Selkowitz 2026-01-19 14:22:03 UTC
(In reply to Benson Muite from comment #8)
> /usr/share/dbus-1 is also unowned.

fedora-review has issues with directory ownership of transitive dependencies.  There is no such thing as a modern desktop application without dbus, e.g.:

gtk3 -> atk -> at-spi2-core -> dbus -> dbus-{broker,daemon} -> dbus-common

But I went ahead and added it locally.

> Have raised a needinfo on the bug.

This is a known issue that affects many GNOME programs, it should be fixed centrally (either in filesystem or %find_lang) and should not be a blocker.
