[SOLVED] CentOS 5.5 - symbolic link creation into RPM spec file

Issue

I need to create the following symbolic links into RPM file

/bin/ln -sf libcrypto.so.0.9.8e /lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8
/bin/ln -sf libssl.so.0.9.8e /lib/libssl.so.0.9.8

In my RPM spec file:

%files
%defattr(-,root,root)
/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8
/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8
<other files...>

%install
/bin/ln -sf libcrypto.so.0.9.8e /lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8
/bin/ln -sf libssl.so.0.9.8e /lib/libssl.so.0.9.8

The /lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8e and /lib/libssl.so.0.9.8e are exists on my PC, but when I'm trying to install my RPM, I got an error:

libcrypto.so.0.9.8 is needed by my-test-rpm-1.el5.i686
libssl.so.0.9.8 is needed by my-test-rpm-1.el5.i686

What wrong? What I need to do in order to create symbolic links as part of the RPM installation?

Thanks

Solution

As workaround I disabled automatic dependency processing by adding:

AutoReqProv: no

to my spec file. I'm still looking for the real solution.
