Strange rpm check-files behaviour

[Jos Vos <jos xos nl>]

Hi,

After detecting that "subversion-devel" (RHL 9) does not include
the .so files (like /usr/lib/libapr-0.so), that another application
I want to generate seems to need, and I also didn't see a match in
the %files sections, I did a "rpmbuild -bi subversion.spec".

To my surprise, the .so files *are* installed in the buildroot,
and /usr/lib/rpm/check-files does not complain that they are
not packaged.

Can anybody explain this?
