I've also seen hangs when rpm is executing within %post and encounters an error situation. -Ed On Fri, 2005-01-28 at 08:53, seth vidal wrote: > On Fri, 2005-01-28 at 10:52 -0500, Elazar Rosenthal wrote: > > At least on my FC3 system: > > sendmail is needed by a number of other packages > > # rpm -e sendmail > > error: Failed dependencies: > > /usr/sbin/sendmail is needed by (installed) redhat-lsb-1.3-4.i386 > > smtpdaemon is needed by (installed) mdadm-1.6.0-2.i386 > > > > It is possible that this dependency is keeping it around > > you need to install SOME mta - but sendmail is not the only pkg > providing /usr/sbin/sendmail. > > postfix and exim do also. > > -sv > > > _______________________________________________ > Kickstart-list mailing list > Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list
