Hello all, I was wondering if the following issue is a bug or by design:While trying to figure out, if a TeXLive config(noplace) packaged file was changed of not, I found the following problem with RPM 4.10.2 on openSUSE 12.3:
---------- 1st verify ---------- # rpm -Vv texlive-kpathsea ......... c /etc/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf <stripped the rest> ---------- touching ---------- # touch /etc/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf ---------- 2nd verify ---------- # rpm -Vv texlive-kpathsea ......... c /etc/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf <stripped the rest> ---------- The file /etc/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf is packaged as %config(noreplace).From above example it because clear that at least the time stamp of the file /etc/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf should be shown as changed in the second run of RPM verify. Hence, RPM verify seems to ignore changes of %config(noreplace) files.
How is one supposed to check for changes in these files? There seems to be no command line switch in RPM to override this behavior?
Is this by design or a bug in RPM? Best regards, Joschi Brauchle
