$ rpmlint -i ../RPMS/i386/haploview-3.3-1.fc6.i386.rpm E: haploview no-binary The package should be of the noarch architecture because it doesn't contain any binaries. W: haploview spurious-executable-perm /usr/share/doc/haploview-3.3/README The file is installed with executable permissions, but was identified as one that probably should not be executable. Verify if the executable bits are desired, and remove if not.
