I expected that the %ghost file is just removed by package removal.
I was wrong.

 From 13.2, it seems that %ghost files are not copied into rpms anymore
even though the files exist in %{buildroot}


What is the best way?

# it looks ok to make these files normal ones (but warnings)
%{_sysconfdir}/dconf/db/ibus.d/00-upstream-settings
%{_sysconfdir}/dconf/profile/ibus

# we do not manage this by rpm?
%postun
rm -f %{_sysconfdir}/dconf/db/ibus
# or keep this ghost?
%ghost %{_sysconfdir}/dconf/db/ibus
