Let me explain: - if you have a virgin system without fetchmail and you install fetchmail-6.4 from scratch things work as expected - until you uninstall fetchmail and remove the entry from /etc/group. How often you might reinstall, it will never ever come back. - if you have a non virgin system with fetchmail-6.3 and update to fetchmail-6.4, not having the /etc/group entry, it will fail miserably, no entry in /etc/group so, to make a long story short, whatever that rpm - macro does is not what I would expect it to do. Please find a scriptlett attached, put that into the spec file and there will never ever be any more problems. So, the macro in use in rpm has a bug, however, as this is covered behind whatever I cannot help in finding out what. The beauty lies in simplicity, and this principle has been left behind in that case. Seemingly the rpm - macro is overengineered - I cannot judge. See the attachement (scriptlett "findgroup") and integrate it into the spec file - that would work. Always, any time. Thank you for looking into this, take care Dieter -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
