Here's what I saw when I tried to upgrade a2ps-4.12-7 to a2ps-4.13-1: warning: /etc/a2ps-site.cfg created as /etc/a2ps-site.cfg.rpmnew Looking for the afm files read by a2ps... a2ps: cannot open file `/usr/etc/a2ps.cfg': No such file or directory a2ps: cannot find file `level1.ppd': No such file or directory Extracting font names... Sorting entries... sort: fonts.map.new: No such file or directory execution of script failed Afterwards, "rpm -q a2ps" shows that both 4.12-7 and 4.13-1 are supposedly installed. Furthermore, it appears that the upgrade created configuration files in /etc even though a2ps is now expecting to find them in /usr/etc. I had to copy my config files from /etc to /usr/etc to get a2ps 4.13-1 to work.
This should be fixed now. We switched to %conlfigure in the spec file and --sysconfir=/etc wasn't defined by RPM at the time. It should be fixed in 4.13-4 now. Tim
