Mandi! Stefan Pendl In chel di` si favelave... > I see some problems with this approach:
You're right, effectively after doing some test i realize that i was wrong... simply because newer wpkg update the wpkg.xml file at every step, not at the end. I've simply added, in wpkg client pre execution: if exist "%SystemRoot%\system32\wpkg.xml" ( copy /y %SystemRoot%\system32\wpkg.xml %SystemRoot%\system32\wpkg.old >nul ) and now i check '%SystemRoot%\system32\wpkg.old'. This is not really a ''safe'' method, but can be useful in some case. EG, i've prepared a recipe to install bacula file daemon client, that i don't use extensively but only on some client; a second recipe, if there's a server side .conf file, activate bacula and configure it. With a check like that, i can add a client (or modify the configuration file) and have the second recipe do the upgrade. Because normaly i do that not massively but on that pc, i can check if works (really, i can do it manually, but using wpkg are very cosy! ;). If i have some doubt, or i have to propagate some very important update, i can upgrade revision and have a forced installation. Rougly: because i copy wpkg.xml to wpkg.old *before* wpkg.js run, if some configuration file have a modification date newer then wpkg.old, it is really a new file and have to be ''upgraded''. It is not true the opposite: but as stated, if really i need to propagate some config options, i can update the revision. -- dott.
