[PATCH] Re: Testing Results for LSB Sample Implementation 1.1
You're invoking rpm incorrectly, the mode must be on the commandline
first. Newer versions of RPM will start to enforce this. You're also
using the 'operator' group for DEV, which isn't defined by the LSB.
This should probably be just 'root'.
Attached is a patch that adds a check to make sure the user is root
when running the script (required for proper RPM --root operation) and
a fix to the rpm invocation.
Cheers,
Matt
