[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] "absolute symlink" warning or error? (#793)

[Vít Ondruch]

When I build package, I get following errors:

~~~
... snip ...

error: Installed (but unpackaged) file(s) found:
   /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib64/ruby/enc/trans/cesu_8.so-2.7.0-0.1.git0c6c937904.fc31.x86_64.debug
   /usr/lib64/ruby/enc/trans/cesu_8.so
   /usr/share/ruby/logger/errors.rb
   /usr/share/ruby/logger/formatter.rb
   /usr/share/ruby/logger/log_device.rb
   /usr/share/ruby/logger/period.rb
   /usr/share/ruby/logger/severity.rb
   /usr/share/ruby/logger/version.rb


RPM build errors:
    absolute symlink: /usr/share/ruby/irb.rb -> /usr/share/gems/gems/irb-1.1.0.pre.2/lib/irb.rb
    absolute symlink: /usr/share/ruby/irb/cmd/chws.rb -> /usr/share/gems/gems/irb-1.1.0.pre.2/lib/irb/cmd/chws.rb
    absolute symlink: /usr/share/ruby/irb/cmd/fork.rb -> /usr/share/gems/gems/irb-1.1.0.pre.2/lib/irb/cmd/fork.rb

... snip ...

They look very serious. But once I fix the `Installed (but unpackaged) file(s) found` issues, the `absolute symlink` errors are suddenly reported just as warnings:

~~~
... snip ...

Processing files: rubygem-irb-1.1.0.pre.2-0.1.git0c6c937904.fc31.noarch
warning: absolute symlink: /usr/share/ruby/irb.rb -> /usr/share/gems/gems/irb-1.1.0.pre.2/lib/irb.rb
warning: absolute symlink: /usr/share/ruby/irb/cmd/chws.rb -> /usr/share/gems/gems/irb-1.1.0.pre.2/lib/irb/cmd/chws.rb
warning: absolute symlink: /usr/share/ruby/irb/cmd/fork.rb -> /usr/share/gems/gems/irb-1.1.0.pre.2/lib/irb/cmd/fork.rb

... snip ...
~~~

So what are they, warnings or errors?

~~~
$ rpm -q rpm
rpm-4.15.0-0.beta.1.fc31.x86_64
