Description Enrico Scholz 2003-06-13 17:26:42 UTC 
Description of problem:

Triggers like 

| %triggerin ... -- vpkg

where 'vpkg' is the name of a virtual package (e.g. webserver), will not be
executed.


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

rpm-4.2.1-0.11


How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. build rpms from attachement
   | rpmbuild -bb test1.spec
2. install packages
   | rpm -U test1-1-1.noarch.rpm test1-A-1-1.noarch.rpm
3. cat /root/test-trigger


Actual results:

cat: /root/test-trigger: No such file or directory


Expected results:

'Trigger fired for test1-data'

Hmmm, this is actually an RFE, as triggers are traditionally
fired by package name, not provide name.

I've achieved triggers fired by providename, but more than a little
testing needs to happen before I commit.
Comment 3 Jeff Johnson 2006-01-27 08:22:10 UTC 
Fixed for quite some time. This is rpm-4.4.5 behavior:

[jbj@wellfleet test1]$ sudo rpm -Uvh *h.rpm
Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
   1:test1-A                ########################################### [ 50%]
   2:test1                  ########################################### [100%]
Trigger fired for test1-A
