I'm trying to install an rpm that has a post-install action. During this phase I notice with ps that a temporary script named /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.67318 is created and executed. And its contents are the same as what stored inside the rpm (query done with rpm -qp --scripts package.rpm) Inside the postinstall script there is a call to another script (something.sh). In this latest script there is a test such as : if [ -f $file ]; then cp -vf $file /some/dir if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then echo "$file copied sucessfully!!!" fi else ..... fi I want the script to find the $file so that it skips the "else" section. $file is a filename without any path or prefix. I have no source rpm. So the question is: supposed that in /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.67318 and in something.sh there isn't any CD command, in which dir would happen the check about the presence of $file? it seems that if I place the file in the same directory where I run the "rpm -ivh package.rpm" command doesn't work... Thanks in advance. Gianluca
