Actually no warnings should be suppressed at all IMO.
There is a big exception from that rule - in case we distribute a program without access to its source code (for example Sun/IBM Java). These packages contains some issues in binaries like executable stack, or something else which is unfixable for packager. So suppressing of this messages is useful because it's easier found a packaging bugs in shorter rpmlint output.
Yet such information is valuable to know about a package. If a binary package doesn't fulfil our standards why lie about it? Of course flooding the log with stuff you can't fix anways isn't optimal either. Maybe a summary of ignored errors would satisfy both needs. cu Ludwig -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ V_/_ http://www.suse.de/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
