Since this bugzilla was filed against pre-RHEL 5.1 and was not addressed in 5.2
Beta via FasTrack, moved to 5.3 FasTrack.

perl-XML-SAX has problematic file ParserDetails.ini, which is now filled in
scriptlets. The manual update on x86_64 RHEL-5 is working for me.

Patch which works for me.

patch XML::SAX

Identical to the previous one.

Comment 11 Stepan Kasal 2008-05-12 14:52:20 UTC
Comment on attachment 304940 [details]
patch XML::SAX

It seems that Source1: filter-requires-xmlsax.sh is not used in the spec file,
so if this patch works, then it should also work without it.

Comment 12 Stepan Kasal 2008-05-12 15:16:19 UTC
Comment on attachment 304940 [details]
patch XML::SAX

Oops.  The Source1 is already trere in perl-XML-SAX-0.14-5.  So it just means
that part of diff is already in the main tree.
So it seems adding %post and %preun is what is needed.

FYI: It's easily reproducible, when installing all ('*') at S390x -- rhel-5.4.
