I'm curious, one of my packages has /var/run/dspam in the specfile and
/var/lock/subsystem/dspam used in the initscript... I added a %ghost for
the second and now I'm wondering if I even need to.. Should I revert
that change? and just %ghost /var/run/dspam ?
You probably should %ghost all dirs/files beneath those two directories.
