+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> In a rather autocratic fashion, as the maintainer of rpmlint ( both packages

+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> In practice, that mean that false positives will have to be added there,

+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> So the question is &quot;how do we deal with evolution ( ie, how do we decide

+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Traditionally, packagers didn't care at all, and so the configuration bitrotted
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> since a long time, and people didn't used it, and I just added false positives
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> when packagers notified it ( ie, almost never, except when I noticed some of
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> them ).
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> I suspect that my lack of communication around that didn't help ( and so
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> people didn't knew they could ask for adding a false positive to the list
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> of error to ignore ).
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Yet, I think we can do better, so feel free to suggest any mad idea for this.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> What about the following, AFAIK those are deprecated and rpmlint shouldn't

+</I>Stumbled upon two more false positives, when using %setup_compile_flags
+during %build, presumably because it also starts with %setup:
