[opensuse-buildservice] issues with old rpmlint-mini
[cross-posted, but let's divide follow-ups: general rpmlint discussion to opensuse-buildservice, and rubygem rpmlint issues to opensuse-ruby, thanks :-] Hi all, It seems that the newest version of rpmlint-mini in OBS is only 1.3. Presumably this means we are lagging quite far behind upstream rpmlint, because 1.4 was released almost a year ago: http://www.zarb.org/pipermail/rpmlint-discuss/2011-December/001008.html One issue with 1.3 (and in fact even 1.4) is that we are getting a bunch of spurious warnings from every rubygem package build, due to ri documentation files containing percent-encoded characters: http://rpmlint.zarb.org/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/ticket/569 The fix is simple: http://sourceforge.net/p/rpmlint/code/ci/ae8a019e53784a45c59f23a7b09ad47ea75... and could presumably be backported very easily. So what's the policy on updating rpmlint-mini?

rpmlint-mini just repackages part of rpmlint and dependencies. It's version number is most likely just stale - if you want fixes in rpmlint(-mini), branch rpmlint and add patches.
