What does

[ole_ersoy]

Hi,

I'm attempting to read through a spec file with the following in it:

Requires(post): chkconfig
Requires(postun): chkconfig
Requires(preun): chkconfig

I know what "Requires" does in general (Require the package), but what do the "(post)" and (preun) parts do? Is there any documentation on these constructs?

TIA,
- Ole

Awesome - That was very helpful - Thank you. I found the information in the Dependencies section under "Context Marked Dependencies".

Cheers,
