Hi all,
the Fonts section on
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/ScriptletSnippets
contains this:
Use this when your package installs new fonts.
{{{
%post
if [ -x %{_bindir}/fc-cache ]; then
%{_bindir}/fc-cache %{_datadir}/fonts
fi
%postun
if [ "$1" = "0" ]; then
if [ -x %{_bindir}/fc-cache ]; then
%{_bindir}/fc-cache %{_datadir}/fonts
fi
fi
}}}
Is there a specific reason why there is no "|| :" at the end of
"%{_bindir}/fc-cache %{_datadir}/fonts"? I think there should be one, as
this happened to me during a F-7 -> rawhide update (that's still in
progress while I'm writing this mail, so more errors might show up):
