OTOH, %pre should become rare again once the native user/group handling starts getting actually used. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/issues/2834#issuecomment-1882534469 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to

And yup, most of rpm documentation is either really old, or really recent, with a circa 20 year gap in between. I try to leave some old stuff around just for the historical context/curiosity, but that statement about %pre rarity is just wrong and needs to go. -- Reply to this email directly

They're just copy-paste/thinkos because the tags have the *in part, but %pre and %post don't. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/issues/2834#issuecomment-1880766241 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this

I expect it means %pre and %post, which admittedly break the pattern followed by the other scriptlet types. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/issues/2834 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread. Message
