Previously the configuration file was in /etc/collectd.conf Now the systemd service file is expecting it in /etc/collectd/collectd.conf The old init script is still pointing to /etc/collectd.conf What would be the best approach (especially for migration)

That is what was used for "moving" /etc/sysctl.conf to /etc/sysctl.d/99-local.conf.
I would like to be sure, when the .rpmnew .rpmsave is taking place to not replace an existing configuration.
If in %post, when new release are installed an placing at the correct place /etc/collectd/collectd.conf isn't it too late then to detect a previous configuration ?
This method presumes that the %files list retains /etc/collectd.conf as it currently does, so there is no modification of collectd.conf, you only add the missing symlink to support the new way. Users can then, once they find time and joy, replace the symlink indirection. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
