a) is there already somwhere a script, which replaces duplicate files in packages with softlinks?
Not a script but a program: fdupes and a matching maco in /usr/lib/rpm/suse_macros . But fdupes creates hardlinks, so read the discussion on opensuse-packagers on fdupes for more info on the problems of using %fdupes
%fdupes -s %{buildroot}
that would use symlinks
Thanks. It is dangerous and should be used with care, but saves me some work :-) Thought for the dup-language files it is no solution, or would the hard-links be helpful here? In case of partial extraction would at least one be extracted?
