I have a client server product. The client is packaged as an rpm. The client, upon installation , needs to know the servers ip and port number to connect to.Till now, we got this from the user interactively in %post . Is there a way by which this information can be added to the rpm in the field without recreating the rpm ? I tried this: Have a placeholder of the ip and port in the %post, say xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxxx, and do a binary find replace on the rpm later to add the required info. This of course messes up the digest verification, but nevertheless, it works with --nodigest. Is there a better way ? Or maybe , after adding the info, can the digest be recomputed ? Regards
