Running # rpm -e pcp-pmda-FOOBAR for an enabled pmda leaves it behind in /etc/pcp/pmcd/pmcd.conf, and is consequently reported as a failed pmda at the next startup. It would be nice if a %postun spec fragment would run the ./Remove parts of the affected pmda. (This is the less controversial dual of the desire to have the %post (-install) fragment run ./Install.)
Would it not make more sense for this to occur in the %preun spec scriptlet? By the %postun fragment, the package contents (including the pmda's ./Remove script referenced) would already have been erased.
