The reason is I had a declination with a comment why I have not explained use of %ghost macro in a spec file, but a person who would have reviewed the rpm buildlogs for the package would realize the fact that rpmlint gives the following error.
non-ghost-in-var-run (Badness: 1000)
And the mentioning %ghost in changes file in IMHO is nonsense as the issue has nothing to the with the package but packaging itself and from the end users point of is just cosmetic.
Eh? The .changes file is first and foremost about changes in _packaging_!
Yes and no. If the changes affect the way the program behaves it should be included in the changes, but cosmetic things like fixing rpmlint errors or warnings (not mentioning the rpmlintrc file) that is cosmetic should not clutter the changes file. Though on a second thought maybe I should have mentioned it in the #sr message yet my expactation was /is one looks the rpmlint logs and understands the logic behind it. But it was pointed out not many people read the logs. Togan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
