Nouveau.yaml is overwriten

[jonasplaum]

While updating from nouveau 3.4.2 our config in /opt/nouveau/etc/nouveau.yaml gets overwritten on debian12.

I tested this on a clean debian12 system with the following commands (The jfrog repo is already added):

apt install couchdb=3.4.2~bookworm
apt install couchdb-nouveau=3.4.2~bookworm

change something like the index path in /opt/nouveau/etc/nouveau.yaml

apt install couchdb=3.4.3~bookworm
apt install couchdb-nouveau=3.4.3~bookworm

The changes to the config file are lost.

Thank you @jonasplaum. That certainly looks like an issue to fix.

Thanks for the fix, but make build-couch $(lsb_release -cs) PLATFORM=$(lsb_release -cs) fails for me with the following message after this patch. Probably because this file is used in the couchdb package (but the config file is not in this package) and not in couchdb-nouveau. Maybe there is one per package needed.

dpkg-deb: building package 'couchdb-dbgsym' in '../couchdb-dbgsym_3.4.3-3664cb0~bookworm_amd64.deb'.
dpkg-deb: building package 'couchdb-nouveau' in '../couchdb-nouveau_3.4.3-3664cb0~bookworm_amd64.deb'.
dpkg-deb: error: conffile '/opt/nouveau/etc/nouveau.yaml' does not appear in package

[jonasplaum]

Tested again after the merge. It works as expected.

I think we can close the issue
