Description Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams 2008-04-22 22:25:17 UTC
This package contains files in /srv, which according to a recent packaging
guideline change is no longer allowed.

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#NoFilesOrDirectoriesUnderSrv

Please ensure that the files are placed elsewhere.

Fun stuff. The directory in /srv is plague-builder user's home
directory. If moved, it would break upgrades (because this path
is in /etc/passwd already) and require admins to fix it manually.
Trying to work around it with usermod -m -d ... in rpm scriptlets
would be fragile, too (and bears the risk of modifying /etc/passwd
where that is not wanted).

Just in case, in plague cvs 0.4.5-branch it's been moved to
/var/lib/plague/builder.
