Comment 1 Dan Fandrich 2014-01-01 22:37:49 CET 
This warning is harmless, but it is a little disconcerting. ldconfig could be patched to stop looking in those locations by default on x86_64, but that would change it's default behaviour which may be unexpected. The simplest solution is probably to just pipe stderr to /dev/null in the postinstall script.
Comment 2 Dan Fandrich 2014-01-01 22:48:28 CET 
The other option is to just include those two empty directories in the RPM. That might be the cleanest, as it also provides a hint to the user that they are there and available.

BTW why do you have uclibc installed?

Comment 4 Nicolas Lécureuil 2014-01-04 18:35:52 CET 
it was on a chroot to build rpms ( i don't recall which one btw ).
Comment 5 Thomas Backlund 2014-01-04 19:38:38 CET 
uClibc gets sometimes pulled in by libz.so.1 (provided by lib(64)uClibc-zlib1) and urpmi tends to suggest picking the uClibc over the lib(64)zlib1

I guess we need to update prefer.vendor.list

Comment 6 Thomas Backlund 2014-01-04 19:50:37 CET 

I've now pushed new meta-task that prefers zlib over uClibc-zlib

Fixed in uClibc-0.9.33.2-5.mga4
