How can I define a variable that I > %can use on the %defattr directive inside %pre section? I don't think you can do what you want with rpm. By the time the %pre scriptlet is running, the %defattr in the %files section is long since set. You could use chgrp in %post to fix up the group ownership of the files, which will make rpm complain if you run --verify against this package. There's probably a better way to handle this if you're willing and able to change more than just this one package. It seems to me that needing to do this seems like a good indication that something else is wrong. -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ All I really want for Christmas is Santa's list of Naughty Girls.
