Hi - my apologies for the premature send. After building versions 1) 4.4.2.3 stock from dev site 2) 4.4.2.3-18 RHEL patches 3) 4.1.7 stock from dev site, and then finally 4) 5.1.9 from rpm5.org site We appear to have a functional combination of RPM and YUM that is free of the "%pre, %post", etc. scriptlet failure problem. Numbers 1 through 3 all exhibited the bug, and in fact 2 exhibited the problem even using the rpm runtime on the command line. rpm5 appears to handle dependencies differently, and we will apparently have to make a much more significant system dependencies package. Also, rpm -qa performance diminishes significantly when GPG keys are added to the RPM DB (I have posted a question about this to the RPM5 list). Architecture detection and naming also differs in this version, and /etc/rpm/platforms had to be created for desired behavior. We are still working towards a complete, polished solution but the major issues seem to be behind us (although the GPG performance is troublesome). Just thought I'd post this for the benefit of any future Solaris users. -j _______________________________________________ Yum mailing list [email protected] http://lists.baseurl.org/mailman/listinfo/yum
