Description Mike A. Harris 2005-11-15 20:19:20 EST

libwmf spec file is missing:

Requires(postun): /usr/bin/update-gdk-pixbuf-loaders

[root@fc4i386 RPMS]# rpm -e libwmf
/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.16651: line 2: /usr/bin/update-gdk-pixbuf-loaders: No such file
or directory
error: %postun(libwmf-0.2.8.3-8.i386) scriptlet failed, exit status 127

Comment 1 Caolan McNamara 2005-11-16 03:30:27 EST

spec and rpm *seem* ok

Spec has Requires(post,postun): %{_bindir}/update-gdk-pixbuf-loaders

and rpm has

rpm -qRp /mnt/redhat/dist/fc5/libwmf/0.2.8.4-1/i386/libwmf-0.2.8.4-1.i386.rpm
...
/usr/bin/update-gdk-pixbuf-loaders
...

Comment 2 Mike A. Harris 2005-11-22 23:09:31 EST

Some versions of rpm have a bug in the way that "Requires(post,postun)"
is parsed, which causes it to be ignored.  This will trigger this failure
when upgrading the OS if a new rpm package has that syntax, and older rpm
is being used, such as by yum upgrade.

Please update the spec to use the following instead, which works on all
versions of rpm:

Requires(post): %{_bindir}/update-gdk-pixbuf-loaders
Requires(postun): %{_bindir}/update-gdk-pixbuf-loaders

ah ha!, k done.

Comment 4 Need Real Name 2006-07-18 23:13:41 EDT

An old opps still exists in the FC4 libwnf-0.2.8.3-8.2 spec file;

%post
/sbin/ldconfig
%{_bindir}/update-gdk-pixbuf-loaders %{_arch}-%{_host_vendor}-%{_host_os}

%postun 
/sbin/ldconfig
%{_bindir}/update-gdk-pixbuf-loaders %{_arch}-%{_host_vendor}-%{_host_os}
