2025-07-31 16:07:52 <@james:fedora.im> Not sure we want to do anything but close this ... but if anyone has a cool idea of something we could put somewhere I'm open to suggestions.
2025-07-31 16:08:12 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> I would close this
2025-07-31 16:08:30 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> this is a particular nuance that is already documented in rpm's own docs about making packages
2025-07-31 16:08:53 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> I'm pretty sure our scriptlets documentation already links to the rpm docs about this too
2025-07-31 16:08:54 <@limb:fedora.im> Agreed
2025-07-31 16:09:11 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> that said, the directory replacement stuff doesn't work at all
2025-07-31 16:09:15 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> it hasn't work for years
2025-07-31 16:09:20 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> it hasn't worked for years
2025-07-31 16:09:46 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> as far as I know, there's no functioning way to get out of the file->directory->file problem
2025-07-31 16:10:18 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> the transaction fails before it even starts because of the transaction check
2025-07-31 16:10:26 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> so even pretrans scriptlets don't run
2025-07-31 16:10:29 <@limb:fedora.im> There are some nasty kludges in moodle.spec that rdieter and I worked up ages ago
2025-07-31 16:13:02 <@james:fedora.im> !topic Open Floor
2025-07-31 16:13:39 <@james:fedora.im> Anyone have anything to bring up?
2025-07-31 16:16:08 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> not me
2025-07-31 16:16:54 <@decathorpe:fedora.im> nöpe
2025-07-31 16:17:04 <@limb:fedora.im> no
2025-07-31 16:19:28 <@james:fedora.im> Okay, I'm going to end it early then ... everyone can do exciting things instead of being here ;)
