Description of Problem: build qa0713.1 anaconda-7.1.91-4.200107110300.ia64.rpm /etc/issue still reads: Red Hat Linux release 7.1 (Seawolf) Kernel 2.4.3-12smp on an ia64 redhat-release and /proc/version indicate that the system is running the proper kernel and release.
Is there an /etc/issue.rpmnew?
Putting bug in NEEDINFO state.
This defect considered MUST-FIX for Fairfax gold-release.
* /etc/issue and /etc/issue.rpmnew are both present. * /etc/issue contains the pre-upgrade kernel/release info * here are the contents of /etc/issue.rpmnew: Red Hat Linux release 7.1.92 (Fairfax) Kernel \r on an \m
Looks like an initscripts issue.
Woohoo, a real, live, redhat-release bug. Still thinking how to fix this.
Happened to me too. Wouldn't removing noreplace be sufficient? Is (normally dynamically) created /etc/issue* considered fair game for removing?
Hm, maybe. But if they change it, there's no need to replace it. So, what you'd want is: %config (first time it's installed) %config(noreplace) all subsequent times Of course, you can't implement this this way, since you never know at what point will be the first time they install it.
Actually, you *can* implement it that way - fun with triggers! Will be fixed in the next beta release.
