Fixed In Version: bind-9.9.4-19.el7 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: bind package was previously installing the tmpfiles configuration under /etc/tmpfiles.d/. Consequence: As a consequence, the administrator's changes made in the /etc/tmpfiles.d/ for bind would be overwritten on package reinstall or update. Fix: bind package was fixed to install tmpfiles configuration into /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/. Result: As a result, the possibly modified system administrator's configuration /etc/tmpfiles.d/ is preserved on package reinstall or update.

Description Morgan Weetman 2015-01-12 05:19:21 UTC
Description of problem:
Package is installing files under /etc/tmpfiles.d/, according to 'man 5 tmpfiles.d':-

"Packages should install their configuration files in /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d. Files in /etc/tmpfiles.d are reserved for the local administrator, who may use this logic to override the configuration files installed by vendor packages"


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
bind-32:9.9.4-14.el7_0.1.x86_64
bind-32:9.9.4-14.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
repoquery --whatprovides "/etc/tmpfiles.d/*" | grep ^bind

Actual results:
bind-32:9.9.4-14.el7_0.1.x86_64
bind-32:9.9.4-14.el7.x86_64


Expected results:
Should return nothing
