Pass argument from Pre-Install-Pkgs to Post-Invoke
Hi,
I am currently working on my rkhunter package to improve the way its
database is updated on package upgrade/install/removal.
The aim is to only update file properties of the changed packages.
To achieve this goal, I need to get the list of changed packages, which
I do in a script invokef through Pre-Install-Pkgs.
The file properties can however only be updated once the packages are
installed, hence I need to run rkhunter --propupd on Post-Invoke.
How could I pass the list of changed packages between my both scripts?
For now, I use a temporary file (I cannot even use a random name). Is it
the right way? Could this have any security issues?
As a (better) alternative, is there a way to get the list of changed
packages in Post-Invoke?
Cheers,
Julien
