I'd like to add that this is the kind of thing that makes unified administration tools that work on any distro difficult to write and maintain. Each distro has their own tools - which is fine. But when using the lowest common denominator method (manually removing symlinks in this case) is undone upon upgrade, then tools designed to work on any distro now have to modify for each specific distro, rather than use the least common denominator method that in theory should just work. _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
