This paragraph actually contains the info needed: you are not depending on aaa_base from your package; rpm can't know that this is a rather basic package for openSUSE.

It doesn't make a difference if I put aaa_base in BuildRequires (it is installed by default anyway) I still get the warning. So what do you suggest

this package or its file based dependencies.

How about Requires: ?

It only stop complainig if there is Requires: /sbin/service But to me that is not the ideal solution since when building for openSUSE 12.2 and earlier I am using the following and without the specific Requires: directive there are no warnings ln -sf %_initddir/${i} %buildroot%_sbindir/rc${i} Therefore something is fishy which I do not understand Togan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
