[opensuse-packaging] new RPMLint checks
Hi, there are new checks being added to the Factory rpmlint package that will become errors soon: init-script-without-%stop_on_removal-preun package installs an /etc/init.d script, but doesn't run the %stop_on_removal macro in %preun init-script-without-%insserv_cleanup-postun package installs an /etc/init.d script, but doesn't run %insserv_cleanup in %postun for understanding why those are necessary, please read the packagers manual / suse packaging conventions. There are about 93 packages affected. I'd like to hear about false positives in order to improve the check. invalid-desktopfile package contains a .desktop file that doesn't validate. (use desktop-file-validate on it to understand why). 259 (!) packages are affected. untranslated-desktop-file package installs a .desktop file but doesn't run %suse_update_desktop_file on it. 138 packages are affected. The library policy checker has been updated to give more accurate information. Those warnings are not becoming an error any time soon, so consider them for information only. There is also an informational check for files that shouldn't be in a suse linux binary package, like the generic (source-) INSTALL instructions or README's for non-linux operating systems. I don't know exactly yet how many packages are affected, but its somewhere around 600.
