Add an 'uninstall' to the Makefile and backup replaced files

Reported by: aaronlippold Assigned to: bwhalen
Priority: High Milestone: 2009 - Release 4
Component: Installable System Keywords: Makefile CLIP installation
Cc: bwhalen@tresys.com

Description

Makefile uninstall and File Backup

The Makefile doesn't backup replaced system files and doesn't provide an easy way to return the system to its previous state if there are issues with the CLIP installation.

The install command has a --backup option that will just copy replaced-file to replaced-file~ in the destination directory.

RPMs

This means that if you need restore you have to 'yum replace' :

  • audit
  • coreutils
  • policycoreutils
  • sudo
  • pam
  • openssh-server

STIG-Fixes

Any system files affected here should be backed up as well.
