Description Nathanael Noblet 2011-05-23 17:04:13 UTC
Description of problem:
rpm --resign is now in rpmsign binary, which is all good, however rpm doesn't provide a useful warning/message that this happened. I spent a good 20 minutes trying to figure out why rpm --resign couldn't read my package, changing mode, permissions etc.

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


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rpm --resign package.rpm
2.
3.
  
Actual results:

rpm: /path/to/package.rpm: No such file or directory

Expected results:
An error message like "--resign not supported, use rpmsign"
