Description Andrew Overholt 2008-05-28 14:52:28 UTC
In the review for emma (bug #444511), it came up that rpmlint warns about poms
being in /etc/maven.  Should we work with Ville/rpmlint to get this warning
removed in this case?  Alternatively, it should probably be put into the Java
packaging guidelines if this is expected.

$ rpmlint RPMS/noarch/emma-2.0-0.5312.2jpp.1.fc9.noarch.rpm 
emma.noarch: W: non-conffile-in-etc /etc/maven/fragments/emma

This bug has been triaged

Comment 2 Bug Zapper 2008-11-26 02:20:55 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle.
Changing version to '10'.

Comment 3 David Walluck 2009-03-04 15:32:15 UTC
I believe that this warning is correct since these files are not config files. Marking them as %config will silence the warning, but doesn't really make sense for these files.

To change the location, we could make sure that %update-maven_depmap looks in both the old and new case, and then change the macro's default location in a maven update (2.0.8 or 2.0.9).

Comment 4 Bug Zapper 2009-11-18 12:31:33 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 10.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '10'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here: 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

Comment 5 Bug Zapper 2009-12-18 06:10:26 UTC
Fedora 10 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-12-17. Fedora 10 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.

Comment 6 Andrew Overholt 2010-01-05 15:22:33 UTC
Still present.  Someone should speak with the rpmlint developers to fix this.

Comment 7 Mary Ellen Foster 2010-02-15 11:30:22 UTC
Yes, a lot of my current java packages have those files as %config(noreplace) because I was blindly following that warning until it was pointed out that it was a mistake. (NB: I'm planning to fix the affected packages as part of other updates; don't know if it's worth pushing a bunch of updates just for this)

Fedora 13 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2011-06-25. Fedora 13 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.
