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 ? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
