Created attachment 844587 [details] wrong dirs in package shown with yast
The latest build/package (cacti-1.2.16-133.2.noarch) installs the files in the wrong directory in opensuse tumbleweed. Earlier packages installed the files in the ordinary opensuse web directory.
This is not really correct, /srv/www is for data provided by a webservice to end users, not web application code. If possible, such code belongs below /usr. In best case, a RPM should not contain or install any file or directory in /srv. And while most developers don't care yet, this means that this packages are already unusable on MicroOS with transactional-update and will not work with modern technologies like systemd-sysext and other stuff, which all depends on the "hermetic-usr" concept. That there are still packages installing stuff into /srv/wwww which does not belong there means: 1. the developer did not care to adjust his package in the last >>10 years 2. the upstream code does not allow to package it correct -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
