Re: [Ltib] %post spec section not expanded in rpm

[Stuart Hughes]

Hi Alex,

I recently updated ltib so it adds --noscripts to the rpm install/erase 
commands.  This has the effect of not running and pre/post preun/postun 
scripts in the spec file.  I suspect that when you query the installed 
package these are now not recorded and so you see no output.

This is deliberate as another user correctly pointed out this is a 
security risk.  I should also mention that there are few instances where 
running these scripts makes sense.

What are you trying to do, maybe there's another way to do this.

Regards, Stuart
