Calling script from a RPM spec file
Hi,
I want to execute a script "myscript.sh" in the %post part of a rpm spec file. Suppose the script is placed in /opt/path. Then simply calling like sh /opt/path/myscript.sh from %post part (of that spec file) will suffice? Or there is any other way?

grid-ca-package

GRID-CA-PACKAGE(1)						  Globus Commands						GRID-CA-PACKAGE(1)

NAME

       grid-ca-package - Prepare a CA certificate, configuration, and policy for distribution

SYNOPSIS

       grid-ca-package [-help] [-h] [-usage] [-version] [-versions]

       grid-ca-package [-ca HASH] [-g] [-b] [-r] [-d]

DESCRIPTION

       The grid-ca-package utility creates a tarball containing an RPM spec file and the files needed to use a CA with grid tools. It optionally
       will also create a GPT package for distributing a CA.

       By default, the grid-ca-package utility displays a list of installed grid CA and prompts for which CA to package. It then creates a tarball
       containing the CA certificate, signing policy, CA configuration files, and an spec script to generate a binary RPM package containing the
       CA. If the CA hash is known prior to running grid-ca-package, it may provided as an argument to the -ca parameter to avoid prompting.

       In addition to generating a spec script and tarball, grid-ca-package creates a GPT package if either the -g or -b options are used on the
       command-line. These packages may be used to distribute a CA and configuration to systems which do not support RPM packages.

       The grid-ca-package utility writes the package tarballs to the current working directory.

       The full set of command-line options to grid-ca-package follows.

       -help, -h, -usage
	   Display the command-line options to grid-ca-package and exit.

       -version, -versions
	   Display the version number of the grid-ca-package command. The second form includes more details.

       -ca CA
	   Use the CA whose name matches the hash string CA. When invoked with this option, grid-ca-package runs non-interactively.

       -g
	   Create a GPT binary package in addition to the RPM script tarball. This package may be installed on other systems using the gpt-install
	   program.

       -b
	   Create a GPT binary package with GPT metadata located in the path expected by GPT 3.2 (used in Globus 2.0.0-5.0.x) instead of
	   ${datadir}/globus/packages as used in Globus 5.2.x. This option overrides the -g command-line option.

       -r
	   Create a binary RPM package for the CA. This option currently only works on RPM-based distributions.

       -d
	   Create a binary Debian package for the CA. This option currently only works on Debian-based distributions.

EXAMPLES

       Package a Simple CA with hash 0146c503

	   % grid-ca-package -ca 0146c503
	   Creating RPM source tarball... done
	     globus_simple_ca_0146c503.tar.gz

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       The following environment variables affect the execution of grid-ca-package:

       GLOBUS_LOCATION
	   Non-standard installation path of the Globus toolkit.
