All,

I have a question.

I've packaged a package that uses scripts in %post and %postun

When do zypper install <package> and a zypper update and a rpm -i
<package> and a rpm -U <package> I exactly see what is described in
http://www.stearns.org/rsync-backup/rsync-backup.spec

<quote>
##Here are the scripts run at first install, in this order:
##pre - 1 - first install

##post - 1 - first install
#
##Here are the scripts run during an upgrade, in this order:
##pre - 2 - upgrade
##post - 2 - upgrade
##preun - 1 - upgrade
##postun - 1 - upgrade
#
##Here are the scripts run at final erase, in this order:
##preun - 0 - final erasure
##postun - 0 - final erasure
</quote>

I don't understand why during an upgrade %postun is run after %post?
As I expect %postun = post uninstall?

I would expect that during an upgrade the %preun and %postun would be
run before %pre and %post

Can someone please explain, why it's like this?

Regards,

Joop.
