I just installed R-hdf5 and received this error message from the

I also can't uninstall the rpm without using the --noscripts option
because of the samepostscript error. The postscripts are listed below:
[root@n1 ~]# rpm -q --scripts R-hdf5
postinstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
cat /usr/lib64/R/library/*/CONTENTS> /usr/lib64/R/doc/html/search/index.txt
postuninstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
cat /usr/lib64/R/library/*/CONTENTS> /usr/lib64/R/doc/html/search/index.txt
It appears that /usr/lib64/R/doc doesn't exist- hence the errors.
After looking at a few other R "plugins" I saw that they use
/usr/lib/rpm/R-make-search-index.sh in the post scripts which seems to
perform the same function as the current postscripts in R-hdf5 but
among other things, uses existing paths.
Note that R modules use rpm macros for the post scripts that are
resolved at rpm build time:
%post
%{_R_make_search_index}
Looks like this changed at some point. May just be time to rebuild some
of the older R modules in EPEL. I'll take a look.
