http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1082318 Bug ID: 1082318 Summary: Packages must not mark license files as %doc Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: All OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other Assignee: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: fvogt@suse.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Certain licenses require that license files must be shipped together with the binaries in all cases. By using the %doc marker, this is no longer guaranteed (e.g. by enabling excludedocs). Thus it is important that for such cases, %license is used instead of %doc. The effect is that the file is always installed, stored in a different directory (/usr/share/licenses/<pkg>/) and can be queried using rpm (e.g. "rpm -qL kernel-firmware"). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
