pedantic nitpickery ... just noticed in the man page for "rpm" the default path for configuration files: --rcfile FILELIST Replace the list of configuration files to be read. Each of the files in the colon separated FILELIST is read sequentially by rpm for configuration information. Only the first file in the list must exist, and tildes will be expanded to the value of $HOME. The default FILELIST is /usr/lib/rpm/rpmrc:/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/rpmrc:/etc/rpmrc:~/.rpmrc. and while both of those first two files exist on my F27 system, the latter (/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/rpmrc) opens with the line: include: /usr/lib/rpm/rpmrc which seems superfluous as that file is already part of the default FILELIST. i'm sure it doesn't do any harm, it just seems unnecessary, no? rday _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
