Ralf, Please excuse the delay in my thanks, but I only just got around to testing this.
Your instructions to modify postfix to use syslog.. > # rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/current/SRC/postfix-1.1.7-20020404.src.rpm > # cd /cw/RPM/SRC/postfix > # vi postfix.spec > [remove line 128 ("AUXLIBS="$AUXLIBS -L$fakesyslogdir -lfakesyslog")] > # rpm -bb postfix.spec > # rpm -Uvh /cw/RPM/PKG/postfix-1.1.7-20020404.*.rpm ..worked perfectly, although I think the line number in postfix.spec was slightly different. What is the approved way to stop the "/cw/etc/rc all *ly" jobs from trying to mess with the nonexistent log files in /cw/var/postfix/log and any other postfix related activity? In my case I might as well "rm /cw/etc/rc.d/rc.postfix" since it contains hard-coded paths which are not correct for my environment, but is there a correct OpenPKG way to remove it? This is indirictly related to a more general issue which affects all packaging: the handling of files that change (name, location, owner, permissions, existance). This especially is an an issue for files like main.cf which appear to get unquestioningly overwritten during an update.
