This is now the second time when rpmconf reverted me
google-chrome-stable.repo file back to version where I have `enabled=0`.
It looks like this package generates the repo file in the post scriplet
and does not mention it in the list of installed files, this probably
tricks rpmconf to do an incorrect action. I would love to investigate
further and maybe file a bug for chrome/chromium, but now that I
finished my upgrade I can't look back why rpmconf thought this file
needs updating - scriplet looks like this:
YUM_REPO_FILE="/etc/yum.repos.d/google-chrome.repo"
install_yum() {
install_rpm_key
if [ ! "$REPOCONFIG" ]; then
return 0
fi
if [ -d "/etc/yum.repos.d" ]; then
cat > "$YUM_REPO_FILE" << REPOCONTENT
[google-chrome]
name=google-chrome
baseurl=$REPOCONFIG/$DEFAULT_ARCH
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://dl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub
REPOCONTENT
fi
}
It was likely some older version of the package. Anyway, I thought I'd
drop a warning note for others, because I accidentally disabled this
repo which left my Chrome on an old version for about a year until it
websites started warning me about an unsupported version. This is
dangerous, my main browser is Firefox but this could be a security
problem for others.
