Hello all, I am rolling my own RPM to provide the correct sudoers config for the company where I'm working. I want it to archive the existing /etc/sudoers, and put down the company's one. However, when I install it, I get:file /etc/sudoers from install of sudo-config-20110520-1.noarch conflicts with file from package sudo-1.7.2p1 There are two ways around it that I know: 1. Put the file down as /etc/sudoers.companyname, and mv it in the %post 2. Unpackage sudo, modify, and re-package. I prefer not to do 2, as that will require keeping a close eye on the security errata of the package, and repackaging every time a new version is released. I'd rather keep the upstream package untouched, and just apply my config over the top. 1 works fine - however, it breaks the rpm -V functionality, which in my eyes is a big plus point for using RPMs. Installing with --replacefiles will work - however - however, I want to deploy the package with Puppet, and it doesn't seem to allow specifying that. Is there a way to create the RPM in such a way that --replacefiles is "built-in" to the RPM? Is there any other way of doing this - so that rpm -V works?
