Hello,
I do appreciate help on this issue!
It seems to me that the directories /usr/share/pgsql/tsearch_data timezone =
and timezone_data
- are not explicitly contained within in the RPM
- are not configured by %defattr
(defattr is -,root,root)
I did a quick search to see what the default behaviour is supposed to be wh=
en a directory is not explicitly configured, but came up empty so far.
Sure enough, I have duplicated this scenario with a simple test RPM.
CentOS 5
[root@localhost ~]# rpm -i testy-1.0.0-0.noarch.rpm=20
[root@localhost ~]# ls -ld /opt/counterpath/eas/test
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Apr 21 09:00 /opt/counterpath/eas/test
5
CentOS 4
[root@isotest ~]# rpm2cpio testy-1.0.0-0.noarch.rpm | cpio -tv
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6 Apr 21 08:53 ./opt/counterpath/ea=
s/test/testfile.txt
1 block
[root@isotest ~]# rpm -i testy-1.0.0-0.noarch.rpm=20
[root@isotest ~]# ls -ld /opt/counterpath/eas/test
drwxr-x--- 2 root root 4096 Apr 21 08:59 /opt/counterpath/eas/test
CentOS 5 installs the directory with drwxr-xr-x, whereas CentOS4 installs i=
t with drwxr-x---
I don't think there should be any issue with explicitly specifying the dire=
ctory in the RPM with a %dir directive.
EG.,=20
%dir %attr(0755,root,root) /opt/counterpath/eas/test
My test RPM now installs properly on CentOS 4:
[root@isotest nortel]# rpm2cpio testy-1.0.0-0.noarch.rpm | cpio -tv
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Apr 21 08:53 ./opt/counterpath/ea=
s/test
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6 Apr 21 08:53 ./opt/counterpath/ea=
s/test/testfile.txt
1 block
[root@isotest nortel]# rpm -i testy-1.0.0-0.noarch.rpm=20
[root@isotest nortel]# ls -ld /opt/counterpath/eas/test
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Apr 21 09:14 /opt/counterpath/eas/test
Again, thank you for your time!!!
