Obsoletes: not working

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



On an EL6 machine, I've built a package "foo-bar" and it's intended to
replace any already installed "bar" package on any machines it's
installed on so I put an:

Obsoletes: bar

in foo-bar.spec and it seems to have been added to the resulting package:

# rpm -q --obsoletes -p foo-bar-1.1-1.el6.noarch.rpm
bar
# rpm -ivh foo-bar-1.1-1.el6.noarch.rpm
Preparing...          ########################################### [100%]
   1:foo-bar          ########################################### [100%]
# rpm -q bar
bar-1.0-1.el6.noarch

So why didn't the "Obsoletes: bar" remove "bar"?

Cheers,
b.
