Hi,
I'm working on an RPM package that deploys files to /opt and /etc. In most of the cases it works perfectly, excepted that for a given environment, where writing to /etc is prohibited ....
So I used Relocations in order to deploy the /etc files in some other location :
Relocations : /opt /etc
I assume you mean (the above is how rpm -qi shows it though):
Prefixes: /opt /etc
By specifying --relocate option I can deploy the /etc files into another location :
rpm -ivh --relocate /etc=/my/path/to/etc mypackage.rpm
Now the issue is that in the postinstall script, there are some hard coded references to /etc that obviously don't get replaced when the package is deployed :
echo `hostname --fqdn` > /etc/myapp/host.conf
( this is just an example )
I hope that there is a way (keyword, ... ) to use instead of hard coded paths in order to perform the substitutions during rpm execution.
The prefixes are passed to scriptlets via $RPM_INSTALL_PREFIX<n>
environment variables, <n> is the index of supported prefixes starting
from zero. So in the above,
/opt is $RPM_INSTALL_PREFIX0
/etc is $RPM_INSTALL_PREFIX1
So the scriptlet example becomes:
echo `hostname --fqdn` > $RPM_INSTALL_PREFIX1/myapp/host.conf
- Panu -
If you have any information on this I'd really appreciate some help.
Thanks per advance
