Messages During Update ‘yum Update’ At CentOS 6 VM
Hello,
at the last update (Kernel updated from 2.6.32-696.3.2.el6.x86_64 to 2.6.32-696.6.3.el6.x86_64)
I got these messages
Updating : ipv6calc-1.0.0-20.el6.x86_64 6/25
/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.yi7R81: line 1: /usr/sbin/ldconfig: No such file or directory warning: %post(ipv6calc-1.0.0-20.el6.x86_64) scriptlet failed, exit status

Non-fatal POSTIN scriptlet failure in rpm package ipv6calc-1.0.0-20.el6.x86_64
Cleanup : ipv6calc-0.99.2-17.el6.x86_64 25/25

Non-fatal POSTUN scriptlet failure in rpm package ipv6calc
after this a ipv6calc -A conv6to4 77.88.99.111
works …
what does the messages should say to me …

Looks like ipv6calc is provided by EPEL – and the %post and %postun scripts in that RPM use ‘/usr/sbin/ldconfig’ – which doesn’t exist …
They should be using ‘/sbin/ldconfig’ ?
I guess you need to report this as a bug
(https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL#Communicating_with_the_EPEL_SIG) ?
James Pearson
And possibly create a symlink for ldconfig in /usr/sbin/ as it likely will happen with other other newer software from EPEL for el6.
as root .. :
cd /usr/sbin/
ln -s /sbin/ldconfig .
THEN:
ll ldconfig
SHOULD SHOW:
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 14 Jul 17 12:50 ldconfig -> /sbin/ldconfig
(the date would be different)
This is NOT required .. but would solve any problems with the movement
(in fedora and rhel after the el6 tree was stablized) of ldconfig from
/sbin to /usr/sbin
To be clear, it is a software bug as James stated and it should be reported to the EPEL bugzilla (as should any others found).
