RE: [cobalt-users] RaQ4-en-OSUpdate-2.0: OS Update 2.0



some4 information from a fellow list member that may be useful to some of you that want to remove the PHP updating from the new pkg:

Jim,

no need - just remove the php rpm from the pkg archive as follows:

mkdir somedir
cd somedir
tar -zxvf pathtopkg/RaQ4-en-OSUpdate-2.0.pkg
rm RPMS/php-4.0.3pl1-C1r4.i386.rpm
tar -zcvf pathtopkg/RaQ4-en-OSUpdate-2.0.pkg

you might want to use a different name new package file like
RaQ4-en-OSUpdate-2.0a.pkg

The way the update_me script works (the package installer script) is it
installs all the rpms in RPMS unconditionally.

Please feel free to post this to the list if you think it's helpful but
please leave out my email address if you do.
