Hi, I've run into a problem with the cmake package, and I'm trying to figure out how to solve it. This issue is that the cmake license files are included in both the cmake and cmake-doc packages. This creates a conflict when up trying to update cmake while an older version of cmake-doc is installed on the system. What's the best way to fix this? Should I remove the license file from cmake-doc or should I have cmake-doc Require (or Conflict?) with the cmake package?

How it conflicts? %files %license LICENSE %files doc %license LICENSE should not create any conflicts. And this is recomended way to do it.

And this is recomended way to do it. I guess the conflicts happen when the LICENSE file changes between builds and individual subpackages that ship it aren't updated in lock step. Often there is a full NVR version requirement that locks individual subpackages together, but not in this case. If people for example download just one of the subpackages from koji (and not the other), it can lead to only one of them getting updated. License from subpackage goes to different directory. See: $ rpm -qf /usr/share/licenses/llvm/LICENSE.TXT llvm-17.0.2-1.fc39.x86_64 $ rpm -qf /usr/share/licenses/llvm-libs/LICENSE.TXT llvm-libs-17.0.2-1.fc39.x86_64 llvm-libs-17.0.2-1.fc39.i686 so license from llvm and llvm-libs should not never conflicts because the file goes to different directory. What can conflict is multilib packages in different version with different content of the file.
