Hi, Can we remove %ldconfig_scriptlets and %{?python_provide:%python_provide python3-%{srcname}} from the specs ?

The new documentation of packaging guidelines is very cool [1], I'd like to suggest a section for scriptlets that can be removed fro spec files and documentation since when, also if, inform how to deal with epel 7 and 8 version, even better .

Thank you for clarifications , I read #_the_py_provides_macro before writing this email :) And I would change wiki to this sentence ... , IMO is more clear . > The %ldconfig_scriptlets macro can be removed on all Fedoras. > Possibly also on > EPEL 8. But it is required on EPEL 7.
