Hi all
I am preparing package "cronie v 1.4.4" in System:Base repo, this package 
should replace old "cron 4.4" package. Basically it's the same package. To 
obsolete old cron I used
Provides: cron = 4.2
Obsoletes: cron <= 4.1

But problem in my case is that switching from cron to cronie (even if I use 
rpm -U) isn't update (but uninstal cron + install cronie), and so macros like 
: %fillup_and_insserv, %stop_on_removal or %restart_on_update doesn't do the 
job, all these macros check $FIRST_ARG (or $1) which depend on 
update/uninstal/install process

Result of these issues is that after switching from cron to cronie :
cron process isn't running and cron service is always turned on

Had anyone solved similar problem ?
what about using epoch ?
