I totally agree, but in my experience rpm Does The Right Thing (TM)
regarding config files. I generate RPM's for various utilities we use
internally and it works very well. I've never had a problem with it
regarding config files, but I try to keep my config files in the rpm as
stable as possible so I don't have to worry about all the .rpmsave and
.rpmnew detritus that happens.
