Description of Problem: In 2.2-6 I first removed "rm -rf /usr/share/config/kdm" then I installed the package. The link that was created contained some special characters! e.g. kdm;8F340234---> ../../../etc/kde/kdm something similar to that. I removed it and replaced it with kdm only and it started to work. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual Results: Expected Results: Additional Information:
The proper procedure for updating from <= 2.2-6 to >= 2.2-7 is rpm -e --nodeps kdebase rpm -ivh kdebase-2.2-8.i386.rpm The problem is that rpm can't handle replacing a directory with a symlink, which is what we're doing. (The fact that it was a directory rather than a symlink was a bug in 2.2-1 to 2.2-6, which we never released officially [and rawhide is supposed to break occasionally ;)])
