upgrade_languages_conf broken and updating languages questions?

Hi list!

Just a small remark, for some releases already upgrade_languages_conf 
doesn't seem to be working for the RPM install, see the output below.

Are there any upgrade scripts that provide a quick and easy way 
to get rid of all the .rpmnew files for all the languages and just 
replace the old versions?

Also if somebody knows of a way to do some sort of grepping and deleting 
the 'MS thanks transtec' etc. lines from the various reports through a 
script that would be really neat :)

For the error, when I change to the reports/en directory and run upgrade_languages_conf I 
get this:

[root at gw en]# upgrade_languages_conf languages.conf languages.conf.rpmnew 
> languages.new
Usage:

RPM
===
If you are using the RPM distributions then try this:

cd /etc/MailScanner/reports/en
upgrade_languages_conf languages.conf languages.conf.rpmnew > 
languages.new
mv -f languages.conf languages.old
mv -f languages.new  languages.conf

TAR
===
If you are using the tar distribution so that the old version is in
/opt/MailScanner and the new one is in /opt/MailScanner.new then:

cd /opt/MailScanner.new/etc/reports/en
../../../bin/upgrade_languages_conf 
/opt/MailScanner/etc/reports/en/languages.conf 
/opt/MailScanner.new/etc/reports/en/languages.conf > languages.new
mv -f languages.conf languages.old
mv -f languages.new  languages.conf

NOTE
====
To keep your old comments in your original file, add "--keep-comments"
to the command line.  Note that this will mean you don't get to find
out any extra new values you might be able to use in existing "improved"
configuration options.
