Bug ID: 1731721 Summary: perl-Font-AFM depends on files/directories from non-standard locations Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Status: NEW Component: perl-Font-AFM Assignee: rc040203@freenet.de Reporter: i.gnatenko.brain@gmail.com QA Contact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: lxtnow@gmail.com, perl-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org, rc040203@freenet.de, rob.myers@gtri.gatech.edu, tcallawa@redhat.com, tremble@tremble.org.uk Blocks: 1731683 Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora
Hello,
Fedora Packaging Guidelines allow dependencies only on files/directories from /usr/bin, /usr/sbin and /etc directories[0]. Your package depends on files/directories outside of those. See below for more information about package/dependencies.
--- perl-Font-AFM-1.20-30.fc31.src: - /usr/share/a2ps/afm/phvr.afm ---
Please correct those or provide reason why is it correct. It is very important to not download huge filelists.xml just because few packages in distribution depend on non-standard paths.
Thanks for cooperation!

--- Comment #5 from Fedora Program Management fedora-pgm@bot.bugzilla.redhat.com --- This message is a reminder that Fedora 32 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 32 on 2021-05-25. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '32'.
Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.
Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 32 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.
Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.

--- Comment #6 from Ben Cotton bcotton@redhat.com --- Fedora 32 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2021-05-25. Fedora 32 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.
If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug.
Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
