Description Ville Skyttä 2007-05-15 20:19:25 UTC

Upgrading from nfs-utils-1.0.10-7.fc6.x86_64 to nfs-utils-1.0.10-10.fc6.x86_64
when nfs is not running results in:

error: %postun(nfs-utils-1.0.10-7.fc6.x86_64) scriptlet failed, exit status 1

...and subsequently:

$ rpm -q nfs-utils
nfs-utils-1.0.10-7.fc6.x86_64
nfs-utils-1.0.10-10.fc6.x86_64

This is because /etc/init.d/nfs condrestart returns an error code (1) if nfs is
not running:

# /etc/init.d/nfs status
rpc.mountd is stopped
nfsd is stopped
# /etc/init.d/nfs condrestart
# echo $?
1

Fix: make nfs condrestart exit with 0 if nfs is not running.

> Fixed in nfs-utils-1.0.10-11

Well, the same bug hit during an upgrade from nfs-utils-1.0.12-4.fc7
to nfs-utils-1.0.12-6.fc8.  The later has in postuninstall

   .....
  /etc/rc.d/init.d/nfs condrestart > /dev/null
  /etc/rc.d/init.d/nfslock condrestart > /dev/null

and the "nfslock" happens to return with status 0 regardless if
it nfslock service was running or not so everything is apparently
fine.  But the previous line will return 1 if nfs was not running
so if that will show up at the end then we are screwed.

Why not to add an explicit terminating 'return 0' and not to rely on
how scripts in /etc/rc.d/init.d/ were edited at the moment?
