Description Enrico Scholz 2004-03-20 00:08:49 UTC 
Description of problem:

# rpm -Uvh test-*0-1.noarch.rpm
Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
   1:test-B                 ########################################### [ 33%]
   2:test                   ########################################### [ 67%]
   3:test-A                 ########################################### [100%]


Expected would be that 'test-A' gets installed before 'test'. The
trigger seems to be the 'postun' Requires; without it, things are
fine.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

rpm-4.2-0.69 - rpm-4.3-0.21


How reproducible:

100%

Comment 2 Enrico Scholz 2004-03-20 00:17:44 UTC 
When writing

| Requires(pre):    test-A
| Requires(postun): test-A

instead of

| Requires(pre,postun):  test-A

things are fine too.
