[Cooker] [Bug 6360] [mozilla] triggers remove links to flashplayer (and other plugins) when mozilla is updated
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6360 --- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-17-11 19:04 --- Those triggers never worked for me. I used to recreate those links after updating for quite some time because I hadn't the time to figure out what was wrong. I also remember seeing a bug report about this once, but I cannot find it any more now. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. --- Reminder: --- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: When mozilla package is updated, the triggers of the package remove links from /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins, e.g. the one for flashplayer.

Apart this, before modifying any triggers, one have to test all the
cases, when EITHER the main or the triggerred package is installed,
uninstalled or upgraded. So you have a totally of ninecases; if I
remember right, the %triggerun
%triggerun -- plugin
[ $1 = 0 ] || exit 0
if [ -L %{mozillaplugindir}/plugin.so ]; then
rm -f %{mozillaplugindir}/plugin.so
fi
is there because the %triggerun (at least in the past was so)
is ALSO called when the MAIN package is upgraded, so you have to
SKIP the removing of the LINK in this case, and since the
same %triggerun weren't change since mozilla 1.2.1, I don't understand,
why in the past it worked, and shouldn't now?

Looking at the triggers one sees:

This is probably wrong, it should be:

This is also in the examples of /usr/share/doc/rpm-4.2/triggers and makes more

http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6360 --- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-11-15 15:30 --- regarding FlashPlayer, version 6.0-5mdk (ready since 5 september) was like that, i.e. with plugins in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins and links to /usr/lib/netscape/plugins. Probably someone forgot to be place it there, like RealPlayer (with plugin splitten in a separated package RealPlayer-rpnp). Regarding $2, i.e. number of instances of target packages installed, that test should be already computed in %triggerin ($2 -ge 2 and %triggerpostun ($2 = 0), so it shouldn't be needed anymore (symbolic links should be removed when mozilla is uninstalled or triggered plugin is uninstalled, but not when either mozilla is upgraded, or plugin is upgraded too). What I don't understand is why $1 is zero in %triggerun, during the upgrade of mozilla, $1 is 0 and not something other. In fact, rpm -vv -Fvh *1.4-17mdk* gives these commands to be executed: + '[' 0 = 0 ']' + '[' -L /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so ']' + rm -f /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so + rm -f /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/flashplayer.xpt which removes links. Has RPM triggers changed behavior? I remember that Epoch was causing strange effects in triggers in newer rpm, when version numbering is used. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. --- Reminder: --- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: When mozilla package is updated, the triggers of the package remove links from /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins, e.g. the one for flashplayer.
