Hi I found this conversation about the RPM Build error with the /usr/share/doc path information.

I'm trying to build the new freeradius-1.1.2 release over RHEL4 and I got the same error. I'm not an expert with Linux and I would like to know which is the best option to fix this problem.

Thanks in advance

I noticed this too, that with 1.1.1 the docs are installed to 
doc/freeradius and not doc/freeradius-1.1.1
    

It has been discussed on the freeradius-devel mailing list: the
libraries and the executables are installed in version-independent
directories, therefore it's more consistent to have the docs under
share/doc/freeradius. BTW it's also the recommended location in the
Debian policy manual.

  
I'm not sure why this change came about, but can't a simple sed
script fix it?  Then build your RPM.

sed -i 's@doc/freeradius@doc/freeradius-1.1.1@g' doc/Makefile &&
sed -i 's@doc/freeradius/examples@doc/freeradius-1.1.1/examples@g' 
doc/examples/Makefile &&
sed -i 's@doc/freeradius/rfc@doc/freeradius-1.1.1/rfc@g' doc/rfc/Makefile
    

Perhaps adding this command in freeradius.spec could fix the problem:

sed -i "s@doc/freeradius@doc/freeradius-%{version}@" doc/Makefile doc/examples/Makefile doc/rfc/Makefile

However, I think it'd be more elegant to add an option --docdir to
configure and update the makefiles to use that.
