[opensuse-factory] New packages dog, myxer and treefetch for Factory

Hi! I am announcing three new packages for Factory: - dog, a command-line DNS client, made by the same author of exa. It's currently maintained in network:utilities. https://github.com/ogham/dog - myxer, a modern Volume Mixer for PulseAudio. It's currently maintained in multimedia:apps. https://github.com/VixenUtils/Myxer - treefetch, a lightning-fast system fetch tool made with Rust (although it just calls all the system utilities manually). https://github.com/angelofallars/treefetch Best regards, Danilo Spinella

The old "dog" package is question worthy anyways. The RPM spec declares ownership of wildcard bin- and mandirs. https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/utilities/dog/dog.spec `%{_bindir}/*` `%doc %{_mandir}/man1/*` I would recommend against using it on a production system.

Your claim is wrong, it packages all files inside the mentioned paths, inside the buildroot. There is a difference between "%{_bindir}" and "%{_bindir}/*". While some packages use less generic globs, or no globs at all, this is a quite common pattern, and definitely correct.
