I apologise if you have seen this on rpm-list already but I did not get any response there. I have various directories mounted over NFS to our server, notably /usr/doc. Whenever I upgrade rpms on the server and then on our other machines rpm complains that the docs cannot be removed because they have been already by the upgrade on the server. Is there any way of telling rpm not to try to upgrade files in certain directories? Kirk Bauer, author of AutoRPM suggested to me that there is a netpath (or some such command) which can be placed in the rpmrc file but I can find no documentation on this. If there is a way of doing this what would have to be done to make it effective during an upgrade from RH4.2 to RH5.0? This is particularly important because I am low on disk space on some of the machines and an upgrade then runs out of disk space when all the updated docs are installed.
