--justdb, --excludedocs, and modifying FILESTATES

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

 



Hi,

I've got a bunch of machines running a stripped down Fedora Core 1.
Unfortunately, a number of packages were installed or upgraded before
"%_excludedocs 1" found its way into /etc/rpm/macros, so some packages
had documentation installed.

I'd like to fix up the rpm state on those machines so that they
verify properly without modifying the files themselves (as the
boxes are running remotely, and I don't want to remove openssh etc.

I tried

	rpm --justdb --noscripts --notriggers --nodeps -e foo
	rpm --justdb --noscripts --notriggers --excludedocs -i foo*.rpm

but that doesn't do the trick.  Any suggestions?  Is it possible to do
what I want through the Python binding?

Regards,

	Bill Rugolsky
