OK, sorry I misinterpreted it... to answer this, you should define "depends" in the above sentence in more detail. For installation (%post scripts etc.) you have to use "Prereq" (deprecated) or "Requires(post)" etc. (as you probably know), as just "Requires" does not affect the order *within* a translation. For %postun scripts you have to use "Requires(postun)". However, I remember a discussion about this on the fedeora-devel (IIRC) list saying that this is not working correctly at the moment. Probably Jeff can comment in more details about this. -- -- 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
