Hi! I faced the following problem with Factory: rpmlint demands to rename kxmleditor into libkxmleditorpart1 even though the package is not a library but a full-featured application with .desktop entry in the menu. Maybe the rpmlint policy should be changed so it at least not to attack packages which have .desktop file inside? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

It surely doesn't want you to rename the package, but split out the library into a package of its own.

File a bug report against rpmlint to evaluate the problem. The editorpart _should_ be a module not a library. Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

It says: kxmleditor.x86_64: E: shlib-policy-name-error (Badness: 10000) libkxmleditorpart1 Your package contains a single shared library but is not named after its SONAME.
