This is not completely true. *Only* if the file is marked as %config(noreplace) it will never be replaced and the new file (if the new rpm includes a different file than the old rpm) is stored with a .rpmnew suffix. If a file is just marked as %config it can still be replaced, but only if the new rpm has a different config file than the old rpm. Your own config file (if you had changed that) will then be saved with a .rpmsave suffix. -- -- Jos Vos <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- X/OS Experts in Open Systems BV | Phone: +31 20 6938364 -- Amsterdam, The Netherlands | Fax: +31 20 6948204 _______________________________________________ rhelv5-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv5-list
