Sigh, problem being, we've now been waiting 14+ months for this
theoretical better mechanism. You're willing to wait indefinitely? Not
me. Further, I vehemently argue that problem is outside the scope of
packaging guidelines. Let's try to keep focus on what we (as packaging
committee) *can* solve, please.
I'm not keen on creating rules to "force" the issue though. That is not a
good "use" of our power. We have constraints to work within, those
constraints being what the operating system can handle. Lets not make this a
political thing. We're not going to go ban the use of ldconfig in %post
until the rpm folks work out a way to do it in stages when needed, so why
would we do it for icon cache too?
