Fedora Project

• Updated perl-IO-Multiplex to 1.15 in F-22 and Rawhide:

  • Move untie patch to the right place

Local Packages

• Updated GeoIP-GeoLite-data to create the GeoIP.dat symlink in %posttrans rather than including it as a %config(noreplace) file; had to be careful to handle upgrades properly:

• %posttrans
  # Create the default GeoIP.dat as a symlink to GeoLiteCountry.dat
  #
  # This has to be done in %posttrans rather than %post because an old
  # package's GeoIP.dat may still be present during %post in an upgrade
  #
  # Don't do this if there is any existing GeoIP.dat, as we don't want to
  # override what the user has put there
  #
  # Also, if there's an existing GeoIP.dat.rpmsave, we're probably doing
  # an upgrade from an old version of GeoIP that packaged GeoIP.dat as
  # %config(noreplace), so rename GeoIP.dat.rpmsave back to GeoIP.dat
  # instead of creating a new symlink
  if [ ! -e %{_datadir}/GeoIP/GeoIP.dat ]; then
          if [ -e %{_datadir}/GeoIP/GeoIP.dat.rpmsave ]; then
                  mv %{_datadir}/GeoIP/GeoIP.dat.rpmsave \
                          %{_datadir}/GeoIP/GeoIP.dat
          else
                  ln -sf GeoLiteCountry.dat %{_datadir}/GeoIP/GeoIP.dat
          fi
  fi
  exit 0

• Updated perl-IO-Multiplex to 1.15 as per the Fedora version
