Hello,

The rpmlint check assumes that lib* packages are library packages as
desscribed in
http://en.opensuse.org/Packaging/Shared_Library_Packaging_Policy. The
libxslt is not such a package though, as it contains both binaries
and libraries (and it's therefore valid to require it explicitly).
Maybe the check should only look for explicit requires matching
lib*[0-9], to reduce the amount of false positives.

Sounds like a good idea to me.

patch2mail.noarch: W: missing-dependency-to-cron for logrotate
script /etc/cron.daily/patch2mail

Hmm, what's wrong with my Requires: line? It already includes
cron... Requires: bash mktemp mail grep zypper coreutils net-tools
cron libxslt

I don't see this warning in
https://build.opensuse.org/package/live_build_log?arch=i586&package=p
atch2mail&project=home%3Acboltz&repository=Factory , did you fix it in
the meantime?

No - interestingly this message only appears in the openSUSE:11.0 build,
but not in Factory.
