Hello: I am trying to update an existing package in openSUSE called python-rtslib. This software keeps a database of configuration files in /var/target, under 4 subdirectories. I recently updated the software, and now it fails to build on OBS, giving the error:
python-rtslib: "/var/target" is not allowed anymore in FHS 2.2. [ 61s] python-rtslib: "/var/target/alua" is not allowed anymore in FHS 2.2. [ 61s] python-rtslib: "/var/target/fabric" is not allowed anymore in FHS 2.2. [ 61s] python-rtslib: "/var/target/fabric/ib_srpt.spec" is not allowed anymore in FHS 2.2. ...
I looked up the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard 2.2, and I don't see any place where it says /var/target cannot be used. Can somebody point me at the part of the standard that disallows this? If this holds, this means that either we have to maintain our own set of patches to modify this package, or we have to sell the upstream folks on the merits of moving this (which would be difficult, since I don't see such merits). -- Lee Duncan SUSE Labs -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
