Description Klaus Kämpf 2010-10-29 06:54:30 UTC 
'zypper up --repo factory' fails at tomcat6-6.0.29-2.1 with
"unpacking of archive failed on file /etc/tomcat6/Catalina: cpio: rename failed - Is a directory"
Comment 1 Michal Vyskocil 2010-11-02 10:21:49 UTC 
Oh dear, an another stupid rpm directory-to-symlink issue. The general fix is use hardlink, but in case of /etc/ -> /var/ it's not possible. Thus I made   /etc/tomcat6/Catalina %ghost file and create a likn in the %posttrans script.

Fixed in Java:packages and sent to the Factory - sr#51958
Comment 2 Philipp Wagner 2010-11-06 10:07:44 UTC 
Will there be a fixed update for 11.3 as well?
Comment 3 Michal Vyskocil 2010-11-08 14:20:54 UTC 
I'm working on port of a workaround for 11.3 too
Comment 4 Michal Vyskocil 2010-11-08 14:21:56 UTC 
So let's close it as a DUPLICATE
