Then explain how we solve both this bug and bsc#955996

If one use DISABLE_STOP_ON_REMOVAL != yes the nhe gets what has been requested.

I'll not change back to solve this bug and open the other here.

I don't think we can. No matter what, if %preun and %postun are run both during update and removal, we just cannot take down the display manager. In fact, I'd argue that even during removal it would be unfriendly to kill a running session when the xdm package is removed. So the only time when you can safely terminate it is when no user is logged in. Once the display-manager is terminated it won't restart if xdm is gone, but as long as it is running it will stay running. Even when the user logs out, a DM isn't restarted, thus even though xdm has been removed or updated, the old state remains running. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
