Not sure whether we should *fix* this or not on RPM side. This may break some
of the existing installations, right?

I'm not objecting, just asking for opinions.


Changing that in a minor version seems like a *really* bad idea, because things *will* break. The way it is now it only breaks in case of a major version upgrade, and there is an easy enough workaround present.

But it should perhaps be more clearly documented somewhere.
