This causes problems during update. Mark it as a %ghost in %files [ 53s] section. The thing is: this is exactly as http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Packaging_Multiple_Version_guidelines describes it and how it should be. If /usr/bin/rake is a %ghost, then an update from /usr/bin/rake the file to /usr/bin/rake the link to /etc/alternatives/rake is ignored. The test should actually check that /usr/bin/rake is _not_ %ghost *and* links to an empty file in /etc/alternatives -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
