WPKG 1.x contains an "upgrade-before-remove" feature. This means that you can remove a package from the profile associated to a machine. When the machine encounters that the package is updated (you should have increased its version when you changed the remove command part), then it will first perform an upgrade and then execute the remove commands (which are the changed ones then). So do the following: - change remove commands in your package definition - increase package version (you just changed it above) - either remove the package or let clients just do the upgrade btw. you can also leave the upgrade command empty. So the upgrade will actually not do anything on existing systems. As long as the package checks still yield true. br, Rainer ------------------------------------------------------------------------- wpkg-users mailing list archives >> http://lists.wpkg.org/pipermail/wpkg-users/ _______________________________________________ wpkg-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.wpkg.org/mailman/listinfo/wpkg-users
