Description of problem: If a .spec file contains this line: Conflicts: Then rpmlint doesn't complain about it, but rpmbuild won't process the spec file Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rpmlint-0.81-1.fc8 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a .spec file containing the line "Conflicts:" 2. Run rpmlint on the .spec file Actual results: No errors/warnings Expected results: An error/warning should be produced
rpmlint does not have a full featured specfile parser; for specfile syntax checks you can run eg. "rpm -q --specfile /path/to/foo.spec". Limitation documented upstream, but as far as I'm concerned, the implementation is unlikely to change. http://rpmlint.zarb.org/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/changeset/1383
