Something I probably failed to document properly in 11.4 is the new
macros that got introduced for desktop-related things (some of them
being, arguably, GTK+-only). They were introduced to fix various issues,
and move away from the SuSEconfig scripts.

Any plan to make rpmlint complain about these? IIRC you already had
the checks months ago, true?

I don't think we should make rpmlint complain about that, until we know
what the plan is with rpm 4.9: the new solution with the new rpm might
require us to do an additional change to .spec files, and I don't want
to force people to fix things twice.

So the most urgent topic is to find out what the solution with latest
rpm would be, imho.

From http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2011-04/msg00339.html
it seems to me that ZYpp is not going to change its behavior anytime
soon. And with the current 1 package <-> 1 transaction behavior there
is nothing new rpm versions can do to help us here. So either we
convince ZYpp guys there is a strong enough need for a change of
behavior or we can just forget about this being fixed at RPM/ZYpp
level.
