Summary: Review Request: gxine - GTK frontend for the xine multimedia library https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=222326 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2007-01-18 05:11 EST ------- (In reply to comment #15) > The problem is not firefox, the problem is removing > "%{_libdir}/mozilla/plugins" > the directory, when it's not needed anymore. > > That is what I wrote a couple of days ago in another package's review: > > - If several packages share a common directory, and if they depend on each > other > in a strict hierarchy, then letting the "root package" own this dir is > sufficient. > - If they don't depend on each other in a strict hierarchy, all of the > packages > must own this directory. > > The former doesn't apply to gxine-mozplug => Only the latter is applicable. > > "Requires: firefox" would be a hack to force the former approach, though this, > strictly speaking is incorrect and too strict (It's the same "hack" why > packages > providing *.pc must "Require: pkgconfig" and packages providing aclocal/*.m4 > must "Require: automake". Both these "Require"-ments are hacks/band-aids and > actually wrong, but provided rpm persists to be unfixed/unmaintained, these > are > "easy hacks"). > So what do you suggest then? If the "Requires: firefox" is incorrect hack and "Requires: %{_libdir}/mozilla/plugins" won't work due to some bug in rpm?
