http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=994084 Bug ID: 994084 Summary: Tracker bug: make packages own their symlinks in /etc/alternatives/* Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem Assignee: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: vcuadradojuan@suse.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- This is a tracker bug for making all packages using update-alternatives own their symlinks at `/etc/alternatives/*`. Problem: Currently there is a mix of owned and not owned files by packages in `/etc/alternatives/*` (just look at `rpm -qf /etc/alternatives/*`). Currently there seems to be a sizeable chunk of packages not declaring `%ghost %_sysconfdir/alternatives/<binary>`, as specified at [1]. Also, see discussion on opensuse-factory m-l [2]. Once the mass bug filling for the issue is done, I will wait until 1 October for maintainers to action on the bugs, and afterwards I will start fixing each package by hand.
