Description Chris Duryee 2011-04-06 15:33:57 UTC 
Description of problem:

rpmdiff fails with the following:

File usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/subscription-manager.svg is a dangling symlink (to /usr/share//rhsm//subscription_manager/gui/data/icons/scalable/subscription-manager.svg) on all architectures

Our makefile creates a symlink with extra slashes, which causes rpmdiff to throw a warning that needs to be waived.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

0.95.5.3


Steps to Reproduce:
1. run subscription-manager rpms through errata tool
2.
3.
  
Actual results:

warning about svg file symlink


Expected results:

no warning
