[opensuse-packaging] insserving services
Hi, some packages (e.g. cups), after installation, insert their service into the runlevel, others (e.g. apache2) do not. How is this accomplished in the %post sections of .spec files? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org

http://en.opensuse.org/Packaging/SUSE_Package_Conventions/RPM_Macros#3.6._.2... -y sets START variables to “yes” by default. It is ignored if X-UnitedLinux-Default-Enabled is specified in the init script. -Y forces setting the START variable to “yes”. This means the service is always activated regardless of the setting before an update. darix -- openSUSE - SUSE Linux is my linux openSUSE is good for you www.opensuse.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org

Right, and how can that ideally fly without recompiling the package? Trying to spin a suse derivate (makesusedvd) where apache should be started by default. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org

What about creating a "dummy" package which prerequires apache and has %fillup_and_insserv -Y apache ? Other solution: use AutoYast (because this is what autoyast is for)...

PreReq: %insserv_prereq ... %post %{fillup_and_insserv -f scriptname} ... %postun %insserv_cleanup Packages which are not enabled by default don't have that. (There are more parameters handling upgrades from SuSE Linux before 8.0 but I don't think you need those) Wolfgang --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org

True. He asked about how "insserving" is handled and not fillup ;-) Wolfgang --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org

Lokk into the SUSE Packaginig Conventions at http://en.opensuse.org/Packaging/SUSE_Package_Conventions . The macros %fillup_and_insserv, %insserv_cleanup, %insserv_force_if_yast and %restart_on_update and the Chapter about init scripts are what you need.
