Description Marko Schugardt 2008-12-22 20:37:43 UTC

Package: nfs-client-1.1.3-14.1@i586

# rpm -e nfs-client
..unused
error: %preun(nfs-client-1.1.3-14.1.i586) scriptlet failed, exit status 6

Comment 1 Markus Gaugusch 2009-01-05 10:52:38 UTC

When removed with the --noscripts option, the file /lib/mkinitrd/setup/81-nfs.sh is not removed and causes mkinitrd to fail.

Comment 2 Marcus Meissner 2009-01-09 13:22:01 UTC

%preun -n nfs-client
%stop_on_removal nfs

stop script return error code 6, but this should not really be a problem?

Comment 4 Neil Brown 2009-01-30 03:20:48 UTC

This bug has been fixed since the 11.1 release

I suspect it is worth releasing an update for 11.1.

Anja: Does this seem appropriate for an update?  If so, can I have a 
tracking number please?

Comment 7 Neil Brown 2009-02-06 03:26:53 UTC

Created attachment 270660 [details]
New /etc/init.d/nfs script.

Comment 8 Neil Brown 2009-02-06 03:27:52 UTC

I have submitted an update for openSUSE 11.1.
It replaces the /etc/init.d/nfs script with the one above. 
If you copy that in place you will be able to remove 'nfs-client'.

Thanks.

Comment 9 Swamp Workflow Management 2009-02-17 10:45:27 UTC

Update released for: nfs-client, nfs-doc, nfs-kernel-server, nfs-utils
Products:

This workaround didn't work for me. I suggest to do it this way:

1.Remove the old package (from openSUSE Goldmaster):
rpm -e --noscripts nfs-client
2.Install the new package (from openSUSE Update repo):
zypper in nfs-client
3.Remove the new nfs-client package again:
rpm -e nfs-client
