You've read too much between the lines. ;) A file %excluded in the main package * _need not_ be included in any subpackage, * does not raise an "unpackaged file found in buildroot" error, * may be included in subpackages accidentally (like ordinary duplicates). IOW, with "global" I did _not_ mean it would be hidden completely and could not be included within subpackage %files sections anymore. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
