The OBS defines a cross-distribution macro, info_del, to call install-info --delete %info_del(:-:) test -x /sbin/install-info -a ! -f %{?2}%{?!2:%{_infodir}}/%{1}%ext_info && /sbin/install-info --quiet --delete --info-dir=%{?2}%{?!2:%{_infodir}} %{?2}%{?!2:%{_infodir}}/%{1}%ext_info \ %{nil} The important part is the "! -f %{?2}%{?!2:%{_infodir}}/%{1}%ext_info" that makes sure it is called in postun and no in preun. The problem is that the 06-check-installtest script executes all the {pre,post}[un] scriptlets without really uninstalling the package so, when executing info_del, "%{?2}%{?!2:%{_infodir}}/%{1}%ext_info" still exists and the test fails. All the docs in the wiki, even those that use the openSUSE specific macro instead of info_del, use the macros unconditionally and always in post and postun, never in preun. Fedora, instead, uninstalls in preun and only when the package is going to be removed, not in upgrades. Since 06-check-installtest executes all the scriplets like an upgrade, the Fedora way works. So, options: Use the macros as the openSUSE wiki says: %post -n %{name} %info_add %{name}.info %postun -n %{name} %info_del %{name}.info ...needs fixing 06-check-installtest or info_del OR Use the Fedora way: %post -n %{name} %info_add %{name}.info %preun -n %{name} if [ $1 -eq 0 ] ; then %info_del %{name}.info fi In any case... preun or postun? install-info needs the file to remove it from the index? And, if it should be called only in upgrades, shouldn't be %post -n %{name} if [ $1 -eq 1 ] ; then %info_add %{name}.info fi %preun -n %{name} if [ $1 -eq 0 ] ; then %info_del %{name}.info fi ? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
