Hi I am trying to package a bunch of files so that i can deploy them with rpm - Its prtty much just a case of dumping some files on the filesystem. I achieve this with rpm without issue however when i remove the rpm from the system it also removes the dir that contains the files, even though i dont specify this in the %postun. Is there a way to tell rpm to NOT remove files/dir's that it creates unless i request it? thanks
