Sorry not approved, auto pilot. The summary line is a little long which I realise is the fact that the package is name is so long. Steve
(In reply to comment #2) > Sorry not approved, auto pilot. > > The summary line is a little long which I realise is the fact that > the package is name is so long. > > Steve The only package for which rpmlint complains about the length of the description line is the debuginfo package. The definition of the description of the debuginfo package is not part if the specfile, but is defined in the %debug_info macro. Any package that has a name longer that 27 characters will trip on this. [ellert@ellert ~]$ rpm -E %debug_package %ifnarch noarch %package debuginfo Summary: Debug information for package %{name} Group: Development/Debug AutoReqProv: 0 %description debuginfo This package provides debug information for package %{name}. Debug information is useful when developing applications that use this package or when debugging this package. %files debuginfo -f debugfiles.list %defattr(-,root,root) %endif I can't do much about this except redefining the macro, which I find to be an overkill. When I first saw this rpmlint error I checked what other packages had done. There are many packages in Fedora with names longer than 27 characters. The current practice seems to be to ignore this error for debuginfo packages. (See bug 525304, bug 523326, bug 516516, bug 498189, bug 496429 and others.)
Sorry, I did not intend to reference back to this bug (516516) - that was a C&P error.
Could we at least submit a bug on the macro. It could be changed more generally I say to perhaps always word wrap at the desired length. Steve APPROVED
