[opensuse-buildservice] Problems with rpmlint?
I really do not understand a lot of the rpmlint junk. For example in Package python-postfix-policyd-spf (Project home:gerberb) I have in my spec file. # Requires: python cron I have also tried # Requires: python # Requires: cron But I get this error message. python-policyd-spf.noarch: W: missing-dependency-to-cron for logrotate script /etc/cron.d/policyd-spf This package installs a file in /etc/logrotate.d/ or in /etc/cron.*/ but doesn't require cron to be installed. as cron is not part of the essential packages, your package should explicitely require cron to make sure that your logrotate or cron job is executed. But as you can see it does require cron.. There are others, but I just changed the spec file back to the first one above. I am also confused about shbang?

I get ... missing-dependency-to-cron for logrotate script /etc/cron.d/policyd-spf, but I have a Require cron in the spec file as noted above. It seems I am always getting the opposite of what I try to fix. It is like there is no way to appease these rpmlint requirements. For example I get hardcoded-packager-tag Boyd, but when I remove it I get an error that it is missing. The packager tag. There is no %changelog tag in your spec file. To insert it, just insert a '%changelog' in your spec file and rebuild it. but there is a %changelog in my spec file. I get a lot of these. script-without-shebang /usr/lib/policyd-spf/policydspfsupp.py ... I want /usr/share/doc/packages/python-policyd-spf/ directory only with 755 but then I get the files being +x. Forcing a chmod does not seem to fix the rpmlint problem. I want files g+r,o+r in the directories. I get errors no matter what I do, My source untared is exactly the way I want them. I want just a cp -p to be done. what ever I do to fix the error reported, I get the opposite when I do the fix. I am really frustrated with the rpmlint stuff. Any ideas? I have even a bigger problem with games:vultures. I think if I can understand in my playground I can fix them in the other locations.

File a bug if you think this to be a real bug.

Seems like another bug in rpmlint. I'd suggest to file a second bug report for this.

That message is misleading. What it does want is a separate file named <pkg_name>.changes containing the changes. See the sources of any official package for the format.
I get a lot of these. script-without-shebang /usr/lib/policyd-spf/policydspfsupp.py
That's because the scripts are missing a #! /usr/bin/python at the top.
I want /usr/share/doc/packages/python-policyd-spf/ directory only with 755 but then I get the files being +x. Forcing a chmod does not seem to fix the rpmlint problem.
Use %attr in your spec. See http://docs.fedoraproject.org/drafts/rpm-guide-en/ch09s05.html#id2972829 for an explanation.

Yeah, rpmlint can be frustrating at times. Philipp --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

I do not know what changed, but all I did was trigger a rebuild with my last spec file change that was flagged as failed and everything worked.
