Has something changed on that front? It was, and packages will now fail to build (via brp-ldconfig) if they don't package those symlinks. Though in practice packages which did not do this would have been exceedingly rare anyway and when I checked the package set looking for examples a year ago I think I only turned up two examples. - J< _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
