This seems to me like a bug in rpm.
I know that I get this:
S.5....T /etc/X11/gdm/Sessions/KDE
.M...... /usr/bin/kdesu
.M...... /usr/bin/konsole_grantpty
S.5....T /usr/share/config/kdmrc
Now in rpm if I had:
%files
%defattr(-,root,root)
/usr/bin/*
%attr(1755,root,root) /usr/bin/kdesu
Why should rpm tell me that a file is listed twice? If it is, I would
rather have the last listing of the file override all others. So then
something like this would work. I hate RPM :)
In any case, it seems to be that creating a file list using find (like
Mandrake used to do). And then using sed to change the 2 files you want
will work and not leave those M errors.
While we're on the subject. Everytime I install kdelibs-sound, artsd
doesn't have permission to read from the sound device. I can do:
chmod 4755 /usr/bin/artsd
everytime... but I don't think I should ahve to do that. Note that my
sound devices are owned by group sys. The permissions on /usr/bin/artsd
are 755 root.root. Now root is in the sys group, so I'm not sure what's
gong on here... little help? :)
