Description Douglas Kilpatrick 2001-08-21 15:57:45 UTC

Description of Problem:
I mount /usr RO when possible.  Sometimes I forget to remount it rw before
trying to install RPM packages... When I have the package handy, its not a
huge thing: just retry.  But when trying to up2date from Roswell1 to
Roswell2 it looked like the DB thought I had upgraded the packages even
though the actual installs failed to write out the new files.

Collapsing all RO mount problems here.

Adding "4.1" to subject, trying to get the work prioritized.
