Greetings.
I'm attempting to demonstrate how RPMs will save the developer's butt by not allowing a file to be overwritten and during my demo, PackageB overwrites PackageA's file
[root@webd-m01 ~]# rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/local/testfile
psi-test-1-dev
psi-retest-2-dev
what did I do wrong?
I am considering from this context that PackageA=psi-test-1-dev, and PackageB=psi-retest-2-dev. If so I think you also need
%config(noreplace) /usr/local/psi/testfile in PackageB instead of just leaving it under files.
