we have this problem on the docker package that could be fixed by adding a configuration option in /etc/sysconfig/docker ...

Can I just update the /adm/fillup-templates/sysconfig.docker and expect that the %fillup_only macro will take care of that?

I think the normal behaviour of fillup is to add missing sections with their default values but leave the existing entries in /etc/sysconfig/foo as they are. However, if a new package breaks with certain old sysconfig values and you are reasonably sure that nobody would want to keep those, it is probably possible and useful to update them in a %post section. man fillup shows something about a --exchange option that might be useful there but then you would need to make sure that other user changes to that option would not be lost then or later. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
