Hello *,
unfortunately the rpm-packagenames of my software have changed.
I'm using "Obsoletes:" to get the old packages out of the rpm-db.
When I'm installaing the version where the packagenames changes the old ones disappear but rpm acts like it is a new installation and not like it is an update.
Is there a possibility to force rpm to assume that this installationcase is an pdate?
Use rpm -Uvh. not -ivh or --install. Installing (rather than upgrading) does not do Obsolets:.
