Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 1271608
/usr/bin/net is lost after upgrading to RHEL 7.2 samba
Last modified: 2015-11-19 04:13:17 EST
Description of problem: When working installation with /usr/bin/net from RHEL 7.1 is upgraded to RHEL 7.2, /usr/bin/net is gone. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Upgrade from samba-common-4.1.12-21.el7_1.x86_64 to samba-common-4.2.3-7.el7.noarch. How reproducible: Deterministic. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have RHEL 7.1 machine against RHEL 7.1 repo. 2. yum install -y /usr/bin/net 3. Verify # rpm -qf /usr/bin/net samba-common-4.1.12-21.el7_1.x86_64 4. Switch to RHEL 7.2 (nightly) repo. 5. yum upgrade -y samba-common 6. rpm -qf /usr/bin/net Actual results: error: file /usr/bin/net: No such file or directory Expected results: Probably samba-common-tools-4.2.3-7.el7.x86_64 Additional info:
Something like Obsoletes: samba-common < 4.2 in the samba-common-tools-4.2.3 package, together with renaming samba-common to something different is probably needed to ensure things are not lost during upgrade.
Adding samba-tools as a dependency to samba-common might work.
