* spec looks good
* dependencies 177865 and 178360 build with this
* basic run-time testing: works for me
* sources match upstream
However:
I'm unsure with regard to the stuff it does when running "adplugdb"
with option "-s".
Currently, it cannot create /usr/share/adplug/adplug.db because the
directory is missing. And it ought not try writing to a file there
anyway, as according to the FHS /usr/share is supposed to be for
read-only and platform-independent data.
Which leads to a question: Is adplug.db a platform-independent format?
The default configuration of adplugdb (and the manual page) would need
a correction to use directory /var/lib/adplug instead
(or var/lib/misc/adplug.db if only that single file is accessed in there).
Which leads to another question: If %dir /var/lib/adplug gets included,
what to do with /var/lib/adplug/adplug.db during package removal?
If %ghost'ed, user would lose the database file. If not %ghost'ed,
the directory could not be removed. I prefer the latter, since I
don't like removing user-created data files.
In either case, /usr/share/adplug{/adplug.db} as a default is questionable.
