How did it pass testing? Should we modify rpm so scriptlet failures aren't fatal? This is the second time in the last six months or so that I've seen scriptlet failures cause major update problems in Fedora, solely because they are fatal (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=989145). If scriptlet failures weren't fatal, we wouldn't have the problem we have now with duplicate packages. We could have just pushed the selinux update, then bumped the release for all updates in the last few pushes, and then rebuilt them. If some of the scriptlets were vitally important, they would get run with the new updates. Am I missing something? Is there any reason why scriptlet failures should be fatal?
