Description
While testing 2.12 RC it was discovered that the current check to validate whether
OPENSEARCH_INITIAL_ADMIN_PASSWORD
env variable is defined, is flawed and doesn't work always. There were other options considered as well but none satisfy a uniform experience for preinstall script :dpkg-query -W opensearch
(current): Prematurely evaluates to true as soon as install startsdpkg -l opensearch
: Works only in upgrade scenarios. For fresh installationpreinst
doesn't break (which is what is expected). Prematurely evaluates to true as soon as install starts.dpkg-query -s opensearch | grep -i ("Status: install ok installed")
: fails on upgrade (it shouldn't), works fine for fresh installationHence, this PR removes changes from preinstall script for DEB distribution.
Note: RPM is not affected.
