Folks,
I think there's a problem with the arguments to trigger scripts. From
/usr/share/doc/rpm-4.1/triggers:
...Recall that the $1 passed to regular scripts contains the
number
of instances of the package which will be installed when the
operation has completed. $1 for triggers is exactly the same --
it is the number of instances of the source (or triggered) package
which will remain when the trigger has completed. Similarly,
$2 is the number of instances of the target package which will
remain. In this case, if any of the targets will remain after
the uninstall, the trigger doesn't do anything (as it's probably
being triggered by an upgrade).
I've included a test case. Untar the tarball, then enter "make", followed
by "./runtest". Annotated output follows.
I'm using rpm 4.1.
Any assistance in this matter would be appreciated. Thanks.
Regards,
Howard G Page
