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 > _______________________________________________ > Rpm-list mailing list > Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.rpm.org/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list > _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.rpm.org/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.rpm.org/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
