Nope it didn't work either, with Charle's suggestion I get this error:

ln: target ‘/usr/lib64/games/warsow/basewsw/’ is not a directory: No such
file or directory

Which I don't understand why it says no such file or directory if that's
the link I want to create. And /usr/lib64/games/warsow exists. I also tried
the for loop option with no success either:

for i in `%{_datadir}/%{name}/basewsw/*`;
do
   file=`basename $i`
   ln -sf $i  %{gamelibdir}/basewsw/$file
done

/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.HdlyUk: line 7: /usr/share/warsow-data/basewsw/*: No such
file or directory

It seems as if the expression `%{_datadir}/%{name}/basewsw/*` (don't mind
the left quotes, it happens the same with them or not) of the for loop
wasn't being expanded and $i ends with the literal value '*'.

Any other suggestions ?
