Modify installation path during installation time (relocate somefiles of a package)



Hello All,


I have the following problem:


I want to install files in a directory on the target machine, which has
the following naming convention of installation path:
/opt/company/product/config/<hostname>/myconfig.cfg

<hostname> must be the name of the machine where the package is installed.

During the build process of the package this name is unknown and therefore I can not use it in the %files list

%files
/opt/company/product/config/<???????>/myconfig.cfg

Is it possible to use a variable as a placeholder in the %files list,
which is resolved at insallation time ? Like:

%files
/opt/company/product/config/$INSTALL_HOST/myconfig.cfg

I could not find a resolution for this problem.
A rename after installation is possible, but there will be problems with
later update installations. I can not use the features of rpm to manage this.


Thanks for your help

Peter
