I believe this is necessary because we want to backup the original database before preforming a rebuild on it. Assigning bug to an engineer. Well, I'll agree that the backup is necessary, but the installer should have removed it afterwards.... But we don't want to remove it after install. There is no way for me to tell that the new RPM database is actually valid and has correct information. Leaving the old one there gives you at least something to fall back to in the case that there is a problem. |
