As i feared, i forgot.
Here is the script. To use it you must:
- Install Tcl (comes on most Linux distros)
- put it in the parent directory of the RPMS directory
- call it using: tclsh install.tcl <old-version-number>
<new-version-number>
Warning: there is no parameter checking so if you don't provide an old
version number, the latest version of the package will be removed (and I'm
not entirely sure the new one will be installed)
If you find it useful, drop me a note and I'll add parameter checking, the
ability to call it without the previous version number and anything else
that you find interesting and that I have time to code up.
Enjoy!
