We do not want to mark this files as conffile since we *want* the to be replaced with package upgrade. So this files are not configuration files and should not be in /etc/ but rather somewhere in /usr as others templates.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Spacewalk 0.5

Comment 1 Jan Pazdziora 2009-11-19 13:44:56 UTC

Well, if we just use %config and not %config(noreplace), they will be replaced upon upgrade. Please complain if you disagree.

Comment 2 Miroslav Suchý 2009-11-19 14:03:25 UTC

But if you put there pure %config, then you will get warning that you are using %config without (noreplace).

I suppose it comes down to if:
 - those files are config files (which means user can configure them) and then this warning can be waived
 - it is not configuration files, but rather template, and it should not be in etc, but rather in /usr/share

Comment 3 Jan Pazdziora 2010-05-04 09:14:44 UTC

Moving to space11.

Comment 4 Jan Pazdziora 2010-11-19 16:05:34 UTC

Mass-moving to space13.

Comment 5 Miroslav Suchý 2010-11-20 13:53:03 UTC

This has been solved as side effect of 491331.
/etc/sysconfig/rhn-satellite-prep is now /var/lib/rhn/rhn-satellite-prep

Comment 6 Tomas Lestach 2011-02-03 12:21:36 UTC

Moving ON_QA ...

Comment 7 Tomas Lestach 2011-02-08 08:41:34 UTC
