    Classification: openSUSE
           Product: openSUSE Distribution

                OS: Other

While I perform a standard installation that includes also the pattern:
  KVM Virtualization Host and tools
I found this error in /var/log/zypp/history:
# 2020-10-13 18:25:11 libbrlapi0_7-6.0-lp152.1.9.x86_64.rpm installed ok
# Additional rpm output:
# /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.3XuonL: line 2: mcookie: command not found

18:25:11|install|libbrlapi0_7|6.0-lp152.1.9|x86_64||openSUSE-Leap-15.2-1|2e0a973c3f59275b650864fec0c081dbc779da53396f7f92f1c7d0d5bcf53bee|
The problem is that libbrlapi0_7 is installed before util-linux and at that
time the binary mcookie used in the postinstall scriptlet, is not available
yet.
A possible fix is to add this line in brltty.spec:
%package -n %{soname}
 Summary:        Library to use BRLTTY from applications
 Group:          System/Daemons
 Requires(post): shadow
+Requires(post): util-linux
+Requires(post): coreutils
 Recommends:     %{name}
Adding the requirement for coreutils too because chgrp and chmod are also used
in the postinstall scriptlet.
