Re: cleaning up %install section

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

 



I am registering a set of files in a db. Some users only need the
first set of files, some need all the files from each set in the db. I
want to allow the option to say, 'I need set1 and set3' etc. etc.

MyFiles/Set1/file1.1,file1.2,file1.3,...
.../Set2/file2.1,2.2,2.3,...
../Set3/file3.1,3.2,3.3,...

If they user only wants to install the files in Set1 I want to have an
option/switch they can pass to say,

rpm -ihv --install-set1 --install-set3 my.rpm

What did you mean by, 'shell file globs'? File Globals?

you could put all the files into one tarball and then manipulate them
using shell file globs.
i have no idea what you are talking about with the sets.
