Yast Gurus, I have a question from my customer about this variable and what possible values & their meaning are? Do we have any documentation available?
Possible values set by YaST are "yes" and "instsys". One place where the variable is used is parted: It behaves different during filesystem resize if it's set. AFAIR some RPM macros also use it.
I'm not aware of any documentation.
According to this bugreport https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=639579 it can also be YAST_IS_RUNNING=1 which is then used by parted. In fact the patch http://bugzillafiles.novell.org/attachment.cgi?id=389782 says: int always_resize = getenv( "YAST_IS_RUNNING" ) != NULL; which means it can actually be anything (also "yes" / "1") According to https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file?file=rpm-suse_macros&package=rpm&project=openSUSE%3AFactory%3APowerPC&rev=90aa982d51941b1f56f22cc8fb540f70 There is a special handling for case when "$YAST_IS_RUNNING" != "instsys" HTH Lukas -- Lukas Ocilka, Cloud & Systems Management Department SUSE LINUX s.r.o., Praha -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: yast-devel+owner@opensuse.org
