The problem still exists with filesystem-12.3-5.1. Stephan wrote the following puzzling statement to the factory mailing list:- "I removed the offending code from the openSUSE:Factory package".

Unfortunately, rpm doesn't know how to replace a directory with a symlink, which is why it fails (and which is why I wrote the preinstall script in filesystem in the first place).. -- 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.

We could still change our init scripts to bind-mount /run to /var/run etc which would leave it as a directory and at the same time avoid trouble with software that treats symlinks special. -- 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.

Especially so in the DVD-based upgrade case. As comment 15 stated, apparently rpm can not do the equivalent of mv $d $d.$tmp ln -s $new $d mv $d.$tmp/* $d/ # FIXME: include dot files but not ".." rmdir $d.$tmp One of the problems might be that there are packages like ConsoleKit, avahi, dbus, lxdm, screen, openvpn, plymouth, syslog-service, aaa_base own stuff in /var/run/ and it might need adjustments in the rpm DB. mls should know. -- 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.
