Add usage of alternatives.
Updated version of this change attached (the %preun is run after %post during
package upgrade).
Fixed & built in Rawhide - pax-3.4-16.fc20. pax-3.4-16.fc19 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 19. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/pax-3.4-16.fc19 |
Created attachment 718174 [details] patch: use /usr/sbin/alternatives As Ondřej suggested, there would be nice to allow select pax alternative in system by /usr/sbin/alternatives because acutal pax implementation does not support 'pax' format (#503860) and there is currently other pax implementation (spax) which is supports pax format quite well. There are attempts in libarchive for creating pax-like front-end also so in future there may be another alternative. I'm attaching patch implementing the step -> allow pax binary to be alternated. What do you think? Do you see there any obvious consequences? Pavel
