If you don't use an Epoch, bumping the F16 version will cause the %triggerun script not to run. An Epoch allows you to bump the version of the F16 package freely, without worrying about breaking the upgrade path. It doesn't matter what version the F16 package reaches, upgrading to F17 will still always result in %triggerun being run. -- packaging mailing list packaging@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/packaging
