You have to back up the old tdbs.   That's why this is
a non-production release :-)

I don't understand why 'rpm -Uvh --oldpackage samba-XXX.rpm
&& /bin/cp -p /var/lib/samba-backup/* /var/lib/samba/'
is not a valid solution?  Why do you have to modify any
packaging ?

I'm sorry for the tdb glitch, but that's why this is a
preX release and not a final release.







cheers, jerry
