Hi,

I'm using the BS rpmlint integration from home:michal-m:rpmlint for one 
of my projects but it has some tests which are broken or not useful:

1.
"This package contains a library and provides no %post scriptlet 
containing a call to ldconfig."
"This package contains a library and provides no %postun scriptlet 
containing a call to ldconfig."

The package contains:
%post -p /sbin/ldconfig
%postun -p /sbin/ldconfig

-> check broken

2.
"There is no Packager tag in your package. You have to specify a 
packager using the Packager tag. Ex: Packager: John Doo 
<john.doo@xxxxxxxxxxx>."

openSUSE's very own package sources have no Packager tag as well. It's 
added from the buildsystem to the resulting RPMs though.
How about making this a warning only?

3.
"Your package containing shared libraries does not end in a digit and
should probably be split."

For this certain package it already was discussed that it's not a 
package which fits into the shlib-policy but anyway I guess rpmlint 
can't decide on that.

4.
"W: unstripped-binary-or-object *.debug"

Yeah, I mean debug files created when %debug_package is used are 
unstripped. That's the plan ;-)

5.
"E: statically-linked-binary *.debug"
"The package installs a statically linked binary or object file."

Seems that debug symbols for binaries are recognized as 
statically-linked-binary.

6.
"The jar file does not contain a META-INF/MANIFEST file."

Not all JAR files have to contain a META-INF/MANIFEST file, how about a 
warning instead of an error?


Probably some of the checks could be tweaked?
