How to remove a *sub*package at end of life ?

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

 



Hi all,

up to F18 we've been shipping cups-php (PHP module) subpackage, but it's not been required by any other package. CUPS upstream dropped this module with cups-1.6 (since F19) so there's been no cups-php anymore in F19. This breaks F18 -> F19 updates when cups-php has been installed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=971741).
What's the correct procedure here ?

Let user solve this by removing cups-php prior to update ?
 - the yum error could be a puzzle for some users
Put Obsoletes cups-php; Provides cups-php into some other package ?
 - update is ok, but user is unaware that the php module has gone
Some ideal solution which doesn't break update and notifies user that CUPS PHP module no longer exists ?
