Description of problem: etckeeper update overwrites existing /etc/cron.daily/etckeeper Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.54 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: It would be nice to leave the original /etc/cron.daily/etckeeper unchanged and have the updates in /etc/cron.daily/etckeeper.rpmsave. Additional info:
/etc/cron.daily/etckeeper could easily be marked as %config(noreplace), but in fact it is not meant as a config file. I am tempted to close this bug as wontfix, unless you can give me good reasons why you have to change that (executable) file.
I agree with you, its not a config file, but we want to redirect the stdout (and stderr) of /etc/cron.daily/etckeeper to the specific administrator email-addresses. As /etc/cron.daily/etckeeper file did not change (afaik) in the last releases, we think it is a good candidate for %config(noreplace).
We found a solution for our customized cronjob, and i will close the Bug with NOTABUG. Thank you for your fast reply
