James -- is this resolved in newer releases (I seem to remember you had a patch for it once upon a time)? No it was never resolved officially. I created the autorollback patch which rollback the failed transaction automatically. I have a set of patches for RHEL 3 which we use in production: http://lee.k12.nc.us/~joden/misc/patches/rpm/patches/latest/4.2.3-10/ But AFAIK if you don't use this patch, or enable the feature, a failed transaction cannot be rolled back properly. Also, those patches are in the HEAD of rpm. Cheers...james Improved rollback in rpm HEAD/4.4.x branches. This is not going to get backported to AS 2.1 as it is in maintenance mode atm. |
