Great!!
So, --nomysql will prevent all the mysql related rpms(mysql, mysql- server, mysql-devel, perl-DBI, perl-DBD-MySQL, and so on) from being uninstalled. Is that right?

BTW, does --nomysql option work for only mysql? I mean what about the other rpms?
--noperl will not uninstall perl and its related rpms?

I think the best option is to pass it a commandline argument, something

./start_over --nomysql

will not uninstall MySQL.

Of course, even if we do not uninstall it, we need to drop the OSCAR
tables.
Yes, this is already taken care of.


Cheers,

Hi Erich,

Is there any way to prevent some packages from being removed/
uninstalled?

As far as I am concerned, MySQL can be used  by used since oscar is
set up and people may add some new database and they may want
to keep
them when they run "start_over".

But right now, it just simply uninstall MySQL and its some related
RPMS (but not all).

I think you have set up some scripts to return the list of rpms for
the specific pacakge on the specific distro.
Can you point out what it is? I am sorry for my laziness not looking
for it yet.
If we can get the list, it would be easy to avoid uninstalling the
necessary RPMs.
