is this really fixed? I still see rpmlint complaining man page warnings in F14.
With re-generated manpage? What's the "... auto-generated by ..." line in the manpage?
Ok. I have docbook-utils-0.6.14-26.fc14.noarch installed. I then fedpkg clone fontconfig fedpkg local rpmlint x86_64/*.rpm and I see rpmlint warnings as fontconfig.x86_64: W: manual-page-warning /usr/share/man/man1/fc-scan.1.gz 1: warning: macro `\"' not defined fontconfig.x86_64: W: manual-page-warning /usr/share/man/man1/fc-query.1.gz 1: warning: macro `\"' not defined fontconfig.x86_64: W: manual-page-warning /usr/share/man/man5/fonts-conf.5.gz 1: warning: macro `\"' not defined fontconfig.x86_64: W: manual-page-warning /usr/share/man/man1/fc-cache.1.gz 1: warning: macro `\"' not defined fontconfig.x86_64: W: manual-page-warning /usr/share/man/man1/fc-list.1.gz 1: warning: macro `\"' not defined fontconfig.x86_64: W: manual-page-warning /usr/share/man/man1/fc-cat.1.gz 1: warning: macro `\"' not defined fontconfig.x86_64: W: manual-page-warning /usr/share/man/man1/fc-match.1.gz 1: warning: macro `\"' not defined ..... Is above testing is ok ?
here is the auto-generated line .\\" auto-generated by docbook2man-spec $Revision: 1.2 $
I changed the banner to '.\" auto-generated by docbook2man-spec from docbook-utils package' in this f14 update so the manpages are not updated at build time. See the fontconfig.spec file => # We don't want to rebuild the docs, but we want to install the included ones. export HASDOCBOOK=no (there should be USEDOCBOOK in fact, but it doesn't matter) I just checked the rpm's in koji and the text is there, so you just have to change this to rebuild the docs and to add build requires on docbook-utils. Closing again ...
Thank you for explanation. You are right. docs are not rebuilt in fontconfig.
