Description Paul Nasrat 2006-02-23 17:52:52 EST

Description of problem:

Updating: beagle
/var/tmp/rpm/rpm-tpm.97919: line 8: cd: /usr/lib64/firefox-1.5.0.1/extensions:
No such file or directory

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

beagle-0.2.1-11

How reproducible:

Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install beagle (assuming firefox installed) on a ppc64 box
  
Actual results:

Trigger fails

Expected results:

Trigger works

Additional info:

You can not assume the presence of lib64 indicates that that is the primary
arch, this is untrue on big-endian 64bit systems (ppc64, sparc64) which run the
32 bit arch as the primary arch.  The trigger is completely incorrect for these
archs

Comment 1 Matthias Clasen 2006-02-23 23:10:35 EST

Hmm, I could do 

if [ -d /usr/lib64/firefox-$latest/extensions ]; then
  libdir=/usr/lib64
else
  libdir=/usr/lib
fi

Or can I use %{_libdir} in a trigger ?  That would be nicer.

Comment 3 Matthias Clasen 2006-02-24 01:48:05 EST

I tried to make the trigger more robust, can you try again, Paul ?

Comment 4 Matthias Clasen 2006-03-01 09:55:23 EST

Paul, any luck ?

Warren, did you want to take a stab at improving the trigger ?

Comment 5 Paul Nasrat 2006-03-01 10:29:26 EST

Yes the trigger no longer fails on the G5.

Comment 6 Warren Togami 2006-03-01 16:27:17 EST

I still want to rewrite the entire %post and %trigger because this leaves behind
files and is untracked by RPM.  This is a clean way of doing this.

Comment 7 Warren Togami 2006-03-01 16:27:47 EST

Er, I mean there is a clean way of doing this.
