Centos 7 source rpm build fails with /usr/bin ... conflicts with file from package filesystem...

[poleguy]

On Centos 7, I tried to build and then install the source rpm:

rpmbuild --rebuild rtptools-1.22-1.src.rpm
sudo yum localinstall ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/rtptools-1.22-1.x86_64.rpm

But it errors out with:

Transaction check error:
file /usr/bin from install of rtptools-1.22-1.x86_64 conflicts with file from package filesystem-3.2-25.el7.x86_64

I'm not an expert, but I hacked in a fix:
rpm -i rtptools-1.22-1.src.rpm
cd ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/
emacs ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/rtptools-1.22.spec

Change the last few lines to, expicitly list the files that should be installed in /usr/bin:

%files
/usr/bin/multidump
/usr/bin/multiplay
/usr/bin/rtpdump
/usr/bin/rtpplay
/usr/bin/rtpsend
/usr/bin/rtptrans
%{_mandir}
#%{_bindir}

rpmbuild -bp rtptools-1.22.spec
rpmbuild -ba rtptools-1.22.spec

sudo yum localinstall ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/rtptools-1.22-1.x86_64.rpm

Hi, I have made a rpm repo, of which there is only one package(rtptools) by this time. You can try it here if interested.

rtptools.spec changed:
