Shouldn't all those changelogs and news be on a -doc subpackage?
Just don't include the -doc on the DVD (if it's worth it), and split into a -doc subpackage whatever hasn't been split already.
The problem is that a single rpm would have to contain the docs of all packages, installed or not, unless split on several rpms (and that package would need very frequent updates). And, in particular the changelog, can be queried directly via rpm command, so it is an standard file that can not be easily removed.
They might be trimmed, but they have to stay in the "parent" rpm.
Carlos, I think you got this one wrong. The openSUSE standard is to move large doc sets out to a separate -doc rpm. Try: rpm -qa | grep doc and I suspect you have a few installed. I just checked a VM of mine and I have these -doc packages installed: bash-doc-4.2-68.12.1.noarch yast2-inetd-doc-3.0.0-2.1.4.noarch readline-doc-6.2-68.12.1.noarch unzip-doc-6.00-24.1.2.x86_64 gnuplot-doc-4.6.3-2.1.4.noarch apache2-doc-2.4.6-6.33.1.noarch amavisd-new-docs-2.8.1-2.8.1.x86_64 rubygem-webyast-mailsetting-doc-0.3.17-2.1.3.x86_64 rubygem-rdoc-3-3.12.2-3.1.2.x86_64 There are probably many more that could be isolated into -doc packages.
