*** Bug 179896 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
To view the spec file: 1- copy the source rpm onto the client 2- rpm2cpio up2date-x.x.xx-x.src.rpm |cpio -i -d 3- open up2date.spec
Package verified: up2date-4.4.69-8.src.rpm The following lines were added to up2date.spec to fix this bug: %config(noreplace) %verify(not md5 size mtime mode) /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date %config(noreplace) %verify(not md5 size mtime) /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date-uuid I have seen a mode failure on my x86_64 box, so I am recommending adding mode to the up2date-uuid list of excludes. [root@bnackash-64 tmp]# rpm -V up2date .M...... c /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date-uuid
latest up2date and rhnlib packages: /dist/3.0E-U8/up2date/4.4.69-10 /dist/3.0E-U8/rhnlib/1.8.7-3
mode has been added to the up2date-uuid list of excludes: %config(noreplace) %verify(not md5 size mtime mode) /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date %config(noreplace) %verify(not md5 size mtime mode) /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date-uuid
