When one installs ksshaskpass, it fails updating alternatives. See the last line in the log below

I guess the update-alternatives syntax use doesn't match the new update-alternatives implementation we switched to.

Here's what we have now:

%post
update-alternatives --install %{_libdir}/ssh/ssh-askpass ssh-askpass %{_kde_bindir}/%{name} 40
update-alternatives --install %{_bindir}/ssh-askpass bssh-askpass %{_kde_bindir}/%{name} 40

%postun
[ $1 = 0 ] || exit 0
update-alternatives --remove ssh-askpass %{_kde_bindir}/%{name}
update-alternatives --remove bssh-askpass %{_kde_bindir}/%{name}

%triggerin -- ksshaskpass < 0.5
update-alternatives --remove ssh-askpass %{_libdir}/ssh/%{name}
update-alternatives --remove bssh-askpass %{_libdir}/ssh/%{name}


I also noticed that this package is missing Requires(post)/(postun) for this.

It doesn't look like there's a problem now. I just installed ksshaskpass-5.8.6-1.mga6 and removed it, and alternatives was fine.

I did, however, add the missing Requires(post) and Requires(postun) statements.
