Instead of that, you can specify an explicit user/group in the %files entries, like %attr(-,foo,bar) /usr/bin/yourapp making "yourapp" owned by user "foo" and group "bar. Then, in the %pre section make sure you create the users/groups you need in the right way (see "rpm -q --scripts ..." for examples on how RHEL packages do that, you may or may not want to use "system users" (uid < 500), etc.). -- -- Jos Vos <jos@xxxxxx> -- X/OS Experts in Open Systems BV | Phone: +31 20 6938364 -- Amsterdam, The Netherlands | Fax: +31 20 6948204 _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
