I am reminded.

Fix the following flaws in your bug report (sic).

0) You refuse to report through recommended rpm5.org bug reporting, either
at http://launchpad.net/rpm, or discussing on <rpm-devel at rpm5.org>.

1) Add -vv so I have some prayer of being able to follow the logic path.
2) Don’t use -F —freshen; instead use -U —update.
3) Don’t use *.rpm because I have no idea what operation is being performed.

4) Remove extraneous warning messages. In addition to having no idea
to what operation is being performed, there is no indication of what is installed,
other than that you have _NOT_ imported some pubkey. You also have not reported
the version of rpm in use, nor what patches are applied.

> warning: package poldek-libs = 0.32.1-2 was already added, replacing with poldek-libs >= 0:0.32.1-3

5) Stop throwing multip[le instances of identical packages at rpm and expecting the right thing to happen.

6) These warnings are explicit confirmation that %config is saving your files, contrary
to your claims.

> /bin/sed: can't read /etc/poldek/repos.d/pld.conf: No such file or directory

7) In addition to _NOT_ reporting
  a) the packages that are being installed
  b) the debugging output with -vv
  c) the packages installed
add to your list
  d) what scripts are being run in what packages

> error: /etc/poldek/poldek.conf: No such file or directory
> error: /etc/poldek/poldek.conf: No such file or directory

8) Instead of cut-n-pasting some random command, try a simple statement like
        polled is broken afterwards.
    Your bug report will be shorter and more succinct.

7) Describe in words, not examples, what you are trying to show.

I again suggest <rpm-devel at rpm5.org> as discussion forum, because I will
not change %config without discussion.

And I again suggest http://launchpad.net/rpm as a bug reporting system, so that
we do not have to repeat these exchanges every 3 months.
