These are in violation with the current packaging guidelines.

    https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#File_and_Directory_Ownership

    [... This means, for example, that no package in Fedora should ever
    share ownership with any of the files owned by the filesystem or man
    package [...]

There used to be more, but they have been fixed in devel (as I mentioned
in a different reply in this thread).
