Summary0011873: [CPackRPM] %files section in spec file directories
DescriptionCPackRPM doesn't handle symlink directories correctly

For example, my expected directory structured should be:

find -type f -o -type l | sed {s/\\.//}
/lib64/libmccparser.so
/lib64/libmccparser.so.2.0.0
/include/mccparser
/include/mccparser-2.0.0/Version.h
/include/mccparser-2.0.0/mccparser.h

where /include/mccparser is a symlink to /include/mccparser-2.0.0:

However, the produced RPM doesn't include the symlink directory:
rpm -qpl mccparser-2.0.0.rpm
/usr/include/mccparser-2.0.0/Version.h
/usr/include/mccparser-2.0.0/mccparser.h
/usr/lib64/libmccparser.so
/usr/lib64/libmccparser.so.2.0.0

with the side effect that the mccparler-2.0.0 directory is not deleted with an rpm --erase mccparser
Steps To ReproduceUsing cmake-2.8.2

 Hi,

CPack is using just the same find command:
"find -type f -o -type l"

Could you attached the spec file produced by CPack in your buggy case?
This is the file printed out during CPack run:
CPackRPM: Will use GENERATED spec file: /DATA/ERIC/CMake/CMake-gitted/build/_CPack_Packages/Linux-i686/RPM/SPECS/cmake.spec

The question is does /include/mccparser appear in the %file list ?

I'm not sure that CPackRPM is the culprit, may be rpmbuild is doing something
nasty in this case.

In the meantime you may recreate the symlinks using postinstall script
embbeded in the rpm see:
CPACK_RPM_POST_INSTALL_SCRIPT_FILE
CPACK_RPM_POST_UNINSTALL_SCRIPT_FILE


Would you be able to provide a small self-contained example project
which exhibits the issue?

 I need more information on this since
I wasn't able to reproduce the issue with current CMake master
(2.8.6rc3)
