Subject: Name space packages and directory ownership
Message-ID: <491F0D73.9090207@oss.schwarz.eu>


I just noted that there is a problem with directory ownership in namespace
packages for which I could not find any documentation.

Say, we have to packages which share the same namespace, e.g.
    foo/pkg1
    foo/pkg2

Which package should own foo? Probably none of them because they don't depend
on each other. On #fedora-devel nim-nim suggested to add some package like
python-filesystem which could own foo.

My question is if we should add something like python-filesystem or something
like python-foo-filesystem as soon we have more than one package in a single
namespace.
