What do you expect from badly written command?

1. using '-f' within /etc should be punished with -rw, as eventually this leads to
data loss - consider someone having old network-scripts files _this day_,
2. this command _might_ fail, what shall not prevent upgrade (classic || :).

[ "$(echo /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-*)" != "/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-*" ] \
	&& mv -n /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-* -t /etc/sysconfig/interfaces
