Hello

I'm sorry, but I'm lost, I need help. I trying to add man pages to my python package.

The following seems to work. But I'm not sure if it's the good way. Can you help me?

%install ... %python_clone -a %{buildroot}%{_bindir}/radexreader %python_clone -a %{buildroot}%{_mandir}/man1/radexreader.1 %python_clone -a %{buildroot}%{_mandir}/fr/man1/radexreader.1 ...

%files %{python_files} ... %python_alternative %{_bindir}/radexreader %python_alternative %{_mandir}/man1/radexreader.1.gz %python_alternative %{_mandir}/fr/man1/radexreader.1.gz ...

Yes, that's correct, %python_clone just copies the file for each python flavor and creates the /etc/alternatives thing. Then with %python_alternative in %files, it's done automatically to add to each flavor package, so python310-radexreader.rpm will have the bin and manpackages for that package and the same for all the other flavors, so if the user replaces one package with a different one, the binaries and man pages are replaced with the corresponding version. Just make sure to add also the manpages to the %python_install_alternative [1], I can see in OBS that you only have the binary there, it should be something like: %post %{python_install_alternative radexreader radexreader.1.gz %{_mandir}/fr/man1/radexreader.1.gz} %postun %python_uninstall_alternative radexreader [1] https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Packaging_Python#Grouped_alternatives -- Daniel García Moreno Python Packager
