I've inherited a number of RPMs that have been constructed as seperate
packages,
however all their stuff should have really been bundled into a single
package.
- How would you go about the migration process to combine all the packages
into one, and get rid (forget) the old packages?
- What would the packages look like during this process?
For example:
Pkg A Pkg B -> New Pkg
----- ----- -------
fileA fileC fileA
fileB fileD fileB
fileC
fileD
But during the migration, the following 'system' rules/restrictions also
apply.
a) I have to reboot the machine after every package install/remove.
b) No file must ever be missing (because they are all needed during the
reboot).
c) I have no way of performing an 'rpm -e' unless its part of a pre/post
install
script of an RPM being installed. So everything must be done via 'rpm
-i'.
TIA
