[Bug 214273] New: inst-source-utils perl module in subdir of /usr/bin is questionable/ugly
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=214273 Summary: inst-source-utils perl module in subdir of /usr/bin is questionable/ugly Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Alpha 5 plus Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Minor Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: andreas.hanke@gmx-topmail.de QAContact: jsrain@novell.com inst-source-utils creates a subdirectory in /usr/bin and places a perl module there. Is that necessary? At least in a default installation, no other package creates a subdirectory in /usr/bin, and /usr/bin is intended for binaries. Maybe the package can place its perl module into an otherwise equally named subdirectory of /usr/lib or /usr/share instead of /usr/bin. (it seems that its predecessor from autoyast2-utils had this module embedded into the script) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

I know that this directory is an ugly hack at the moment. Including the functions in the create_package_descr script is no way to go (we use the functions of RPMQ.pm in other scripts, too, because they are much faster than the normal rpm funtions). So I'll see if I can create a regular CPAN Module - and package the RPMQ.pm in the "normal" CPAN module way. But this can take some time (it's my first CPAN module ... ;-) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

This does not require creating a CPAN module. That would be an unrelated enhancement. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
