Hi all,
I am packaging vim-unite [1] and vim-proc [2] (will submit
review BZs some later time). vim-proc needs a shared object
for its functionality and places it here:
/usr/share/vim/vimfiles/autoload/vimproc_unix.so
Since /usr/share is generally for arch-independent data [3],
I thought this was a no-no (rpmlint complains with
arch-dependent-file-in-usr-share). I did notice that at least
pitivi, coccinelle and rubygem-gherkin all ship such .so files
under /usr/share so I wondered if this is tolerated when it makes
sense (arch-independent plugins which also need a shared object)
or should I see if there are different approaches ?
From a quick look on Debian as well, I could not find a single VIM
plugin that ships a .so file, so I'd need to see where I'd actually
place it. Create /usr/lib64/vim/add-ons/vim-proc or something similar?
This will probably need some coordination with the vim maintainers in such
case.
Any thoughts on this?
cheers,
Michele
