Description Bill Crawford 2005-08-02 09:33:40 UTC 
Description of problem:
After installing a newer package with --replacefiles, and then removing an older
version with the same version (but different release), /usr/share/doc/xxx is
missing.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rpm-4.4.2-3
libcdio-0.75-1.fc5
libcdio-0.75-4.fc5

How reproducible:
install libcdio-0.75-4.fc5 with --replacefiles
remove libcdio-0.75-1
run rpm -V libcdio

Actual results:
[root@pikachu ~]# rpm -V libcdio-0.75-4.fc5
missing     /usr/share/doc/libcdio-0.75
missing   d /usr/share/doc/libcdio-0.75/AUTHORS
missing   d /usr/share/doc/libcdio-0.75/COPYING
missing   d /usr/share/doc/libcdio-0.75/NEWS
missing   d /usr/share/doc/libcdio-0.75/README
missing   d /usr/share/doc/libcdio-0.75/README.libcdio
missing   d /usr/share/doc/libcdio-0.75/THANKS
missing   d /usr/share/doc/libcdio-0.75/TODO
[root@pikachu ~] 

Expected results:
[root@pikachu ~]# rpm -V libcdio-0.75-4.fc5
[root@pikachu ~]#
