Yep, the "creates" makes exec know that the command given will create that file and won't run once it exists. This is similar to using onlyif/unless w/ something like "test -e /etc/yum.repo.d/blah.repo".
I have the requires setup on the package resources like that so the -release RPMs are installed, then they will maintain the release file and keep it updated (ensure => latest). -Doug On 09/13/2011 11:37 AM, Tim Coote wrote: > Thanks.
