Hello
Is it possible to build 2 rpm packages with different major versions,
different install locations but with same package name. The requirement is
when the user installs these packages, he should be able to install both
independently.
For e.g.
Currently, we have package
A) ibm-xxx-i386-xxx-6.0-9.0.i386.rpm ( name : ibm-xxx-i386-xxx version:6.0
release:9.0)
We are now moving to newer release
B) ibm-xxx-i386-xxx-7.0-0.0.i386.rpm (name:ibm-xxx-i386-xxx version:7.0
release:0.0)
Currently, on installing the package B first and then package A we get
following error
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
package ibm-xxx-i386-xxx-7.0-0.0 (which is newer than
ibm-xxx-i386-xxx-6.0-9.0) is already installed
Is it possible to make B package an independent package and make it
co-exist with packageA
Thanks
Kind Regards
