------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri May 27 11:41:47 -0700 2005 ------- Phenomenon: A directory of installation set remains after uninstallation. ls -l /opt/openoffice.org1.9.79/program lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 9 Mar 15 17:36 python -> python.sh lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 17 Mar 15 17:36 python-core -> python-core-2.3.4 Notes: - The similar issue for Linux has been reported in the issue 46314. - No difference of the shell scripts between 680m79 (2.0bc) and 680m104 can be found. Reproduction: 1. Download an installer file for Solaris at http://ftp.stardiv.de/pub/OpenOffice.org/developer/680_m104/ 2. Download a file named admin at http://ftp.stardiv.de/pub/OpenOffice.org/developer/install_scripts/ 3. Extract the installer file. 4. Install packages without use of a shell script named install_solaris.sh. # bash # cd packages # /usr/sbin/pkgadd -a ../admin -d . *core* *[^0-9] 5. Check the installation directory # ls /opt/openoffice.org1.9.104 5. Remove the packages without use of uninstall_solaris.sh. # pkgrm -a ../admin *[^0-9] *core* 6. Confirm if the directory of the installation set is successfully removed. Expectation: # ls /opt/openoffice.org1.9.104 /opt/openoffice.org1.9.104: No such file or directory Reality: # ls /opt/openoffice.org1.9.104 program That means something remains after uninstallation. Quick Look: A package openofficeorg-pyuno has four shell scripts: openofficeorg-pyuno/install/preinstall openofficeorg-pyuno/install/postinstall openofficeorg-pyuno/install/preremove openofficeorg-pyuno/install/postremove The file postinstall has lines to create symbolic links described above while another file postremove has no line to remove the symbolic links. Possible Options: 1. Use function of the package managing system. The system can install and uninstall symbolic links by itself without use of shell scripts. Please refer to descriptions on "ftype l" in the document at http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/806-7008/6jftmsc1n?a=view#ch2buildpkg-19 2. Add some lines in the shell script postremove to remove the symbolic links. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
