Description JW 2009-10-12 23:57:36 UTC
Description of problem:
When upgrading the rpm overwrites existing customized settings in /etc/sysconfig/atd

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
at-3.1.10-30.fc11

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. vi /etc/sysconfig/atd and change something
2. rpm -Fvh at-3.1.10-30.fc11.i568.rpm
  
Actual results:
rpm installs new file at /etc/sysconfig/atd without saving anything

Expected results:
rpm should create /etc/sysconfig/atd.rpmnew or similar

Additional info:
Perhaps "%config(noreplace) %{_sysconfdir}/sysconfig/atd" in at.spec might help.
