Description of problem: I package the gogui and pentobi game and i have fall on a directory ownership problem : %{_datadir}/thumbnailers/%{name}.thumbnailer but /usr/share/thumbnailers is owned by nobody rpm -qf /usr/share/thumbnailers package owned by nobody Or thumbnailers directory has other programms ll /usr/share/thumbnailers total 28 drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 23 nov. 11:31 . drwxr-xr-x. 307 root root 12288 12 déc. 14:26 .. -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 490 24 avril 2012 evince.thumbnailer -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1304 13 nov. 15:35 gsf-office.thumbnailer -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1731 4 juil. 2012 totem.thumbnailer Need Filesystem own this thumbnailer directory or each applications inside (that isn't do for moment) ? How reproducible: rpm -qf /usr/share/thumbnailers Steps to Reproduce: 1.rpm -qf /usr/share/thumbnailers Actual results: Orphan Additional info: For ending gogui and pentobi package i need know if each application need own this directory or if it need owned directly by Filesystem
I change this bug report into tracker bug to follow 894010 894014 894018 bugs Packaging mailing list recommend that each package should own /usr/share/thumbnailers http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/packaging/2013-January/008850.html
yum whatprovides /usr/share/thumbnailers/\* this show a few more packages to fix. /usr/share/thumbnailers/whaaw-thumbnailer.desktop /usr/share/thumbnailers/thunar-vfs-font-thumbnailer-1.desktop /usr/share/thumbnailers/raw.thumbnailer /usr/share/thumbnailers/mate-font-viewer.thumbnailer /usr/share/thumbnailers/gnome-web-photo.thumbnailer /usr/share/thumbnailers/gnome-exe-thumbnailer.thumbnailer /usr/share/thumbnailers/ffmpegthumbnailer.thumbnailer And i can imagine more package to come. So I would rather recommend fixing this once and for all in filesystem ( like /usr/share/applications/ ). This requires the less work and make sure errors are prevented in the future.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle. Changing version to '19'. (As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.) More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping/Fedora19
This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'. 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. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 19 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, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. 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.
Fedora 19 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-01-06. Fedora 19 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. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
