Since ifup just passes the request to NetworkManager, this means that I have to disable NetworkManager alltogether, right ? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

If binaries from util-linux are used in %pre or %post scripts, you have to _pre_require util-linux

Right, prerequiring sed and grep is definitely correct (will submit shortly), but I'm not sure if this causes the problem, first because you did an update, so there should have been at least the 10.2 versions, second Requires vs. PreReq should make no difference to the sorting AFAIK (correct me if I'm wrong). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=304652#c37 --- Comment #37 from Klaus Kämpf 2007-09-13 02:20:28 MST --- There is a _huge_ difference between req and prereq. If one looks at the whole transaction (the complete install or the complete upgrade), the difference becomes apparent: Requires is a run-time dependency and says that _at the end of the transaction_ the required package has to be present. Pre-Requires is an install-time dependency and says that _when the requiring package is installed_ the required package has to be present. This also affects the upgrade since the upgrade is also treated as one (big) transaction so without the prereq the 10.2 version might still be installed but there is no guarantee that its runable. The 10.2 util-linux probably depends on a 10.2 glibc which is already upgraded to 10.3. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
