update path for undev + systemd

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

 



I wonder if there's a recommended path/method for updating from udev 175 + systemd 37 to the current versions? Given the reorganization of files in both packages it's quite easy to end up with a fscked system (as I did today -- system not bootable; had to boot from CD, remove the new versions and reinstall the old).

With udev one can force the use of the old /lib/udev location by giving --with-rootlibdir=/lib --libexecdir=/lib, but I didn't find a way of making current git systemd install into /lib/systemd; even configuring with --with-rootlibdir=/lib, all files that used to go into /lib/systemd go into /usr/lib/systemd.

In principle I have no problem with everything going under /usr/lib, it's just that it seems the chances of a successful update would be better if the old files were overwritten rather than the new ones being installed in parallel.

Thanks for any guidance.
