I don't really know - what advantages would that give?  Just these two... ?

We can remove it in the %preun ourselves - Frank mentioned this too, and this
is now in place - tho manually done, *shrug*.  rpmlint doesn't know about the
file at all, so I'd think it wouldn't complain.

I don't have a preference really, just keen to stop the stream of niggly rpm
install complaints that come in ... feel free to tackle it different/better!

cheers.
