Bug Description
This is opened again cmdchk, but it's only one example. Had a user on IRC last
night who couldn't install *any* of our packages that have unowned directories.
Apparently this is an option in rpm:
https:/
That most distros must disable, as I haven't really run into this in my
testing.
At any rate, any package that has directories not explicitly called out with a
%dir entry, becomes uninstallable on such a system, with output like this:
rpm -i
'/var/opt/
error: Failed dependencies:
/opt/lsb/
