--- Comment #5 from Thomas Fehr
Thomas: yes, the directory moved to /etc/iet. But there was supposed to be a symlink /etc/ietd.conf to /etc/iet/ietd.conf, and it looks like I left that out.
Would such a symlink have averted this problem? If so, I will file a bug right away and add that symlink.
The symlink would have helped but you cannot simply package it into RPM. If the file /etc/ietd.conf exists it cannot be replaced by a symlink during update (afaik RPM refuses to do that). You need to add a postinstall script that does the following: - if /etc/ietd.conf exists and /etc/iet/ietd.conf does not exist, move /etc/ietd.conf to /etc/ietd - create a symlink /etc/ietd.conf to /etc/iet/ietd.conf - add symlink /etc/ietd.conf as %ghost to package - if both /etc/ietd.conf and /etc/iet/ietd.conf exist I would suggest to save /etc/ietd.conf to /etc/ietd.conf.save and also create the symlink The above needs to be done for 12.2 and 12.3 (btw. what about SLES?) For post 12.3 you can simply move /etc/ietd.conf to /etc/iet/ietd.conf in postinstall and I will change yast2-iscsi-client to use /etc/iet/ietd.conf Sounds that reasonable? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
