|| is logical-OR with optimization (i.e., iff the first command fails, do the second). : is the null command. Therefore, this command always returns a success error code (zero), and so an error with update-desktop-database does not terminate the RPM transaction with an error message. -Chris -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
