There is no way to automate this in a way in %post due to local changes and such and assuming system has database up etc. etc. 2) some sites want to stay at a major version of mediawiki without moving to the next one. The idea is to parallel install them and 'obsolete' old versions when they are no longer supported upstream. THis allows an enterprise site to do upgrades when they want to versus on a 'yum update' Does that help explain the reasoning? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ package-review mailing list package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/package-review
