Frequently Asked Questions

1

Which systems are most relevant to this update?

The update applies to systems using SUSE libzypp or zypper packages, including the listed development, debug, and zypper-needs-restarting packages. Chrooted systems are specifically relevant because the update preliminarily disables rpm --runposttrans usage there.

2

Does this update address package-transaction behavior?

Yes. It changes handling of RPM post-transaction and transfiletrigger script execution, including attempting to delay %transfiletrigger(postun|in) execution when supported by RPM. It also ensures an old target is deleted before a new target is created.

3

How can administrators identify whether the update is applicable?

Check whether libzypp, zypper, or any of the listed related packages are installed. The advisory references SUSE-RU-2023:4535-1 and was published on 2023-11-23.
