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):
