Cristian can you provide a wiki page for it? (maybe http://en.opensuse.org/Packaging/Fixing) Dirk can you add the link to the error message? thanks in advance. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

This one really needs explaining, esp since it's not a packaging error but an upstream issue. I'd vote for having separate wiki pages like e.g. http://en.opensuse.org/Packaging/rpmlint/binary-or-shlib-calls-gethostbyname so rpmlint or log file parsers could print the url in a generic way. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
